Thanks; I guess I misunderstood the semantics of computed gotos.  On closer
inspection of the GCC manual,

  "You may not use this mechanism to jump to code in a different function.
   If you do that, totally unpredictable things will happen.  The best way
   to avoid this is to store the label address only in automatic variables
   and never pass it as an argument."
