OK, I suggest the following. Note that I've added function
attribute stating that bail() never returns to caller. Unfortunately,
it forced to add a prototype:

static void bail(const char *msg) __attribute__ ((noreturn));

And here is the function:

static void bail(const char *msg)
{
  assert(msg);

  if (errno)
     fprintf(stderr, "Symify error: %s: %s\n", msg, strerror(errno));
  else
     fprintf(stderr, "Symify error: %s\n", msg);
  exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

If nobody objects, I commit it with the rest of patches.
