makepkg automatically exits on any error in the build() or package() functions.

This is interesting to know; I had no idea. I learn to build my PKGBUILDs from other live examples as well as the .proto versions in the shared pacman directory of example PKGBUILDs. I haven't looked lately but hope these example scripts are updated accordingly. I plan to update my personal PKGBUILDs and the ones I maintain in AUR.
