Hi,

I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I feel I need to bring it
up again (because I'm going to be writing a threaded-code interpreter):
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Labels-as-Values.html

This is an incredibly important extension. The final switch statement is
not a replacement because it doesn't allow the programmer to store a
label address directly into a code stream, which is what's essential to
write a threaded-code interpreter.


I'd also like to see this.


Same here.

Though I believe a way to force tail-call can support the same use case
also helping functional programming.

Say:

goto Call-Expression; //forced tail call

instead of:

return Call-Expression;


I'm not sure that can support threaded-code interpretation.
