Agreed. For now I continue to struggle with missing prototypes in headers (ex.
the prototype for ei_connect_xinit() is nowhere to be found). Did I miss a
header somewhere? This prototype did not seem to be in ei_connect.h.

Another question is why some calls internally call erl_err_quit() instead of
returning an error. Granted, most of those errors (if not all) will stop the
library routine in question from proceeding, but to terminate the calling
process seems a bit extreme.
