Research direction
Start with the linked locations in src/AutoRemoteSyscalls.cc, src/Command.cc, and src/test/threads.c, then inspect nearby error-handling conventions in rr. Review the documented return values for close, fprintf, and pthread_create. Done means each listed return value has deliberate handling consistent with the project and the relevant test suite passes.
