Is that last goto necessary, since the label is reached next anyways?

Maybe this is a defensive goto, assuming that someday someone may add
extra code after that if clause. And for the moment it's just a single
jmp that gets optimized out. (kind of like putting a break on the last
case of a switch statement. It doesn't do anything now, but may save
your bacon later if Ralph Wiggum goes playing in your code ;-))

Fair enough :) Although one would hope that our review process exists to shield us somewhat from whatever Ralph Wiggum's coding style throws at us :)
