only case i found that breaks is with --enable-libxavs
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libxavs.a(common.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libxavs.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

not sure our configure should detect this or if thats beyond its
scope

Its not that you shouldnt use gotos but rather that you should write
readable code and code with gotos often but not always is less readable
