By the way, all traces of 0711-596 on the Web seem to point to IBM compiler errata. Apparently xlc tries to support computed gotos (which is originally a GCC-specific feature) but doesn't do it very well.

The support for computed gotos is detected automatically by the configure script; --without-computed-gotos helps override the detection.

I would close this issue as a compiler bug, especially given that there's a configure switch to circumvent it.
