An exception would work in this case because there is no return value, however there might be problems with resource leaks - even if version 1_30_0 doesn't leak, a later one might.

An exception can "return" arbitrary data, and no, a later one might not leak. That's the same as saying "even if version 1_30_0 does work, a later one might contain a bug."
