`goto' and Destructors in GNU C++
=================================

   In C++ programs, you can safely use the `goto' statement.  When you
use it to exit a block which contains aggregates requiring destructors,
the destructors will run before the `goto' transfers control.  (In ANSI
C++, `goto' is restricted to targets within the current block.)

   The compiler still forbids using `goto' to *enter* a scope that
requires constructors.
