With the rename, please also make this boolean parameter bool_t.

Pointless initializer.

Coding style.

I thought we had agreed on best effort flushing when an error
occurs. That means you shouldn't break out of the loop here, but
accumulate errors. (Breaking out of the loop would be okay if it
was conditional upon the domain having got crashed.)

(The same issue exists again near the end of the patch).
