The computed goto core used to work with suncc. Apparently the computed
goto core has changed in some way that it now no longer compiles.
It might be better to see if it's possible to undo that change so it
compiles again, or to adjust the config/auto/cgoto/test_c.in test to more
accurately test what the computed goto core is doing.
