> I have noticed a change in behavior in "goto" statements recently. Whereas a statement like "goto PLACE;" would work fine no matter where "PLACE:" was in my code, I've noticed that scripts that used to work are now failing at the "goto" statement. > > I can probably work out an example if needed, but the general question is: have any restrictions been put on "goto" recently? What are the real criteria needed to be satisfied for the destination to be successfully found? > Check 'perldoc -f goto'. If that doesn't answer the query, post a simple example that demonstrates the problem. The 'goto' documentation has changed a little from 5.6 to 5.8. I don't know whether that represents a change in functionality, or just a re-wording.
