------------------------------+--------------------------------
 In rend_config_services(), we have a loop over options->RendConfigLines,
 and one of the things it does is:
 {{{
       if (service) { /* register the one we just finished parsing */
         if (rend_service_check_private_dir(options, service, 0) < 0) {
           rend_service_free(service);
           return -1;
         }

         if (validate_only)
           rend_service_free(service);
         else
           rend_add_service(service);
       }
 }}}

 Then once the loop is finished, it proceeds to call
 {{{
   if (service) {
     if (rend_service_check_private_dir(options, service, 0) < 0) {
       rend_service_free(service);
       return -1;
     }

     if (validate_only) {
       rend_service_free(service);
     } else {
       rend_add_service(service);
     }
   }
 }}}

 Look familiar? This duplication is going to bite us when somebody changes
 one part but not the other.

 Found while looking at #20638.
