Sorry for the late response. I agree this should be changed BUT we need
to make sure that we "catch" all the ways that "trace-only" labels might
be used incorrectly. I think that list is a) target of SIGNAL, b)
target of CALL, and c) target of a function call. I'd be interested in
what VM/CMS Rexx does in those scenarios.

I agree; because labels can be used as a debugging aid as well as
targets of branches, it would make sense to allow labels anywhere, but
prohibit branching to them where such actions are not appropriate.
