All bind* clauses are now defined to be non-exit clauses.

Yes, exactly.  That is the purpose of bind*: to bind variables that
reach over subsequent clauses.

If you want bindings within one clause, you can do it just as easiiy
with a clause contaning a let*.  You can make it exit conditionally or
unconditionally using the other features.
