I don't care. Seriously.
I am trying to rework C identifier handling, in order to fix bugs in
the handling of external declarations at block scope. I am not trying
to justify the existence of __label__ or any particular semantics it
has. If you don't like the way I made it work, you can submit a patch
to change it and argue over the semantics with people who do care.
The point of my patch was the internal structural changes, and I need
those. Don't mess with that part.
