pop that undoes set smells somewhat weird.  Perhaps we should rename
set to push?  That would allow us catch possible topics that add new
calls to set_error_routine() as well by forcing the system not to
link when they are merged without necessary fixes.

decl-after-stmt.  Can be fixed easily by flipping the above two
lines.
