Gotos have use for automatically generated code, for example the re2c Lexer generator. I made a re2p (prototype), which generates similar pascal code with goto's and it compiles into efficient code with Delpi 2005. Except that generating label definitions is a pain :^(.

I don't recommend to use labels and goto statements at all. It just messes the code and tells about bad programming manners.
