Not every tiny bit of unportable code should be candidate for
configure.  Some are

In other forums, you have lamented that C programmers don't write codes
according to the C standard.  Well, computed gotos are not standard C.
I'm surprised that you are advocating to keep them regardless.
They do impose some constraints on generation of position-independent codes.
Even though one might argue that GCC has a regression/bug compared to
previous versions, you should know that the construct itself is non-standard.
