OTOH..
Suppose I am building result_set but then something semi-catastrophic
happens which invalidates everything about result_set, maybe we should
not even have been building result_set, we suddenly realise it is a
condition_set or something.

Therefore we should uninitialise(result_set) so that if any other part
of the program tries to reference it, it should cause a trap (to be
fair, the interpereter would have to report different errors to avoid
confusion).

Just a thought, doubt any milage in it, - might it have useful
application in a multi-threaded environment?
