That's correct.  It isn't code that's executed -- it's data. 
Therefore it doesn't belong in the CFG proper.

Nr 2 is my preferred short-term solution.  Long term, of course,
we've got to get rid of ADDR_VEC as an instruction completely.
Probably by hanging a SEQUENCE containing the interesting label
and ADDR_VEC off of a reg note on the tablejump insn.

Nr 1 pollutes CSE with stuff it shouldn't be having to think about.
Nr 3 results in uglier CFGs.

Attached is a patch that allows the test to succeed.  It's not as
friendly as it might be, as optimization phase sequencing leaves
the (code_label 80) around much longer than I would have liked.
It is gone before final though, so it's not the end of the world.
