Calls the function func1 with arg1 as the argument, then calls func2
with arg2 if execution terminated. The return value from
-rb_ensure() is that of func1.
+rb_ensure() is that of func1 when no exception occured.

+ VALUE rb_protect(VALUE (*func) (VALUE), VALUE arg, int *state)
+
+Calls the function func with arg as the argument. If no exception
+occured during func, it returns the result of func and *state is zero.
+Otherwise, it returns Qnil and sets *state to nonzero. If state is
+NULL, it is not set in both cases.
+
+ void rb_jump_tag(int state)
+
+Continues the exception caught by rb_protect() and rb_eval_string_protect().
+state must be the returned value from those functions. This function
+never return to the caller.
