Can't do that here because the current value of err is used later in:
rth->dst.error = -err;

Besides, as mentioned above this is a stepping stone patch all of this 
is moved to a helper in patch 4. Where I could do the assignment before 
the rt_dst_alloc since I put the original err as an input arg rth_err.
