Simply adding "else { continue; }" does not solve the problem, because the
"else if ()" @ 342 (v 1.79) does hold for the databases that are superior to
the base object.
The use of rs->sr_err and gs.err seems legitimate. gs is used to check the
accumulated error codes from the multiple databases and is set in the
callback function.
