I don't believe it's a good thing to do at all.
I suspect more that this wasn't compile tested.

This doesn't compile for at least several
supported gcc versions. 

gcc doesn't (didn't? I haven't tried 4.9) like:

label:
}

to terminate a function definition.

$ cat label_test.c
void func(void)
{
	goto label;
label:
}
$

with gcc 4.8:

$ gcc label_test.c
label_test.c: In function ‘func’:
label_test.c:5:1: error: label at end of compound statement
 label:
 ^

whereas this compiles fine:

$ cat label_test2.c
void func(void)
{
	goto label;
label:
	;
}
$
