The variable error is initialized to 0 and is set to 1 this
value is never read as it is on an immediate return path. The
only read of error is to check it is 0 and this check is always
true at that point of the code. The variable is redundant and
can be removed.

Heh, I guess the author at some point intended not return here, but who
knows. The rest of this function is about as esoteric.

Now applied, thanks.
