It seems weird to have a single 'goto' to maybe_fold, especially inside
a switch like this.

If you think the maybe_fold code won't be reused, then it should just be
hoisted up and the 'goto' removed.

This actually depends on how the support for cast between integers and pointers 
will be implemented (see below).
If we will support truncating pointers (does that even make sense? and I guess 
we cannot extend a pointer unless we add the support for uint128_t), that label 
will be reused for that case.
Otherwise, it might not be reused.

So, please tell me which option to choose and I'll update my patch.

On the other hand, if the maybe_fold code might be reused for some other
case, then I suppose I would have the case end with 'break' and then
have this code outside the switch.

I am curious why this wasn't supported.  It seems like something that
one might want to do.

I have no idea as this is my first contribution to gcc.
But this would be indeed very useful and I opened an issue about this:

thanks,

Thanks!
