A construct such as

if (x)
{
  /* code... */
  label:
}

is forbidden.  (`Compound statement' is a series of statements
surrounded by braces - most people call this a `block'.)

I am not certain what this means, either.  It triggers on code like

struct S { int; };

but that also gets some other warnings.
