I'd add a FIXME comment here documenting that you intend to remove the
old_match parameter after all callers have been updated to the new
semantics.

Bikeshedding: I don't think you need this variable, if you would instead
do...

Drop this assignment and others like it...

use 'if (*sn_info)'

return *sn_info != NULL;

If you _do_ decide to keep the boolean variable instead of hard-coding a
false return and avoiding redundancy by using other variables to
determine the result, then at least s/found/ret/, because I find 'return
found' as a way to intentionally fail rather odd-looking.

At any rate, I can live with this logic, and all the conversions of
existing call sites properly passed the given name, NULL id, and true
for old_match semantics; along with optional deciding whether to pass
NULL or a local error based on whether it would ignore lookup failure or
propagate it as a failure of the higher-level operation that needed a
lookup.
