And I read here too fast: No, I reverted all my patches before applying

If I re-add my patch, it works. (It was not completely clear to me
whether you patch included something like that already.)

I'm not sure whether I understood this. What do you mean by "if the
compiler wants to assign a binding label" and "consider the binding
label if it's non-null". How do you get a binding label without using  
bind(c,name="label") ?

In any case I'm slightly opposed to adding compiler-specific extensions,
but maybe it makes sense after I understood the proposal.
