I'm wondering why you are using it now. Based in your example, it is
meaningless even with the label defined. No matter which conditions are
true or false the logic path always ends up at the label. The format of
the label and the syntax you used for the goto are correct.
When you comment out the label, it works OK? Hmmm. I would have thought
the goto operator would have syntaxed with an undefined label.
