[cairo] cairo_status_t cleared?

[Daniel Goldman]

Does cairo_status_t from cairo_t ever get cleared (overwritten with 
CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS)? The cairo_status_t documentation says that it retains the 
last error, but is silent on whether ever cleared by a successful running 
function. I know I could experiment, but it seems better to find out the overall 
policy.

Also, is there a function (or other recommended way) to reset cairo_t to 
CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS? I looked, but could not find one. This would be analogous 
to resetting errno to 0 before calling some C functions. My idea is to enclose 
the cairo functions within access functions. The access function automatically 
takes action if cairo_status_t has an error condition after running the cairo 
function.
