can it be done this way instead?

if ($status == 0) then

if ($status == 0) then
SUBB
else
SUBA
endif
else
SUBA
endif
end
SUBA()
{
#blabla
}

SUBB()
{
if (blabla) then
#lalalala...
else
SUBA
endif
}
#==================
What you have there (highlighted in red) makes no sense to me.
Without specifics and just going by status, SUBA, SUBB, and blahbla, I would write it:

Code:
if ($status == 0) then
    blahbla
fi

if ($status == 0) then
   SUBB
else
    SUBA
fi

.. or are you expecting another $status from blahbla?
