I think that that's a reasonable use of goto, myself.  It simplifies
the code by having one exit location.  I guess the same thing could be
accomplished in other ways (do { } while (0)) but that wouldn't be
quite so clear.
OK. I'll leave it alone :) I guess it is more of a style thing - I don't know if one is actually "better" than the other.
