	It calls ThrowUserError. By default this calls exit(), but you can
switch to Bugzilla->error_mode(ERROR_MODE_DIE) before calling it (and
then switch back to the normal error mode) if you'd like.

	However, generally you shouldn't be calling things inside of an
eval--there's always ways to check things for yourself. What
specifically are you trying to do?

	Yeah, the WebService is the API.
