Address of labels and -fprofile-arcs

This is a known problem. The -fprofile-arcs code works by instrumenting
the control flow graph (CFG), but it does not yet have code for constructing
a correct CFG when computed gotos are present. We are planning on fixing this
by modifying profile.c to use the existing CFG code in flow.c, but this
will take a while as it requires many changes. Meanwhile, we can at least
print a friendly error instead of aborting. I added the following patch
to the development sources, so that now we get
tmp.c: In function `main':
tmp.c:13: -fprofile-arcs does not support computed gotos

* profile.c (branch_prob): If see computed goto, call fatal instead of
abort.
