We miss a computed goto to non computed got if there is code between the
assignment and the goto:
void g();
int f(int i)
{
void *a;
if (i) a = &&l1;
else a = &&l2;
g();
goto *a;
l1:
return 1;
l2:
return 2;
}
I saw this while debugging PR13024.java and why if I tried compiling it with
javac it passed.
That function should be equivalent to the following:
void g();
int f(int i)
{
void *a;
g();
if (i) a = &&l1;
else a = &&l2;
goto *a;
l1:
return 1;
l2:
return 2;
}
where we check i is not revalant here.
