Re: minor bug on get_res_value and get_res_value_keep

Hi Álvaro,

Thanks for pointing this out. Did it actually break some code for you? In general, I'm not
sure how much effect declaring a variable "local" has. Although, I think it can affect code
if you have a variable in your main code called "return_val".
