I have been merging Phobos that got released with the latest DMD release into
GDC. And couldn't help but notice this nostalgic error I implemented a while
back:
std/format.d:1520: Error: cannot goto into catch block
Line of concern in phobos:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/blob/master/std/format.d#L1539
Part of spec which error implements:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/statement.html#GotoStatement
I have discussed such code before and why it should be disallowed:

And I have raised a pull request (though I seem to recall I had commit access
granted a while back - though this was before the move to github):
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/253
