How large is "sufficiently large"? Usually I write error handling code that could use goto as a state machine. This makes the code much more readable because the whole activity should have been a state machine in the first place. (Teardown and clean up is merely another state.) Needing to use goto for foo typically means foo was an afterthought. Occasionally when I feel I need something goto-like in very small code I find it is more cleanly expressed as a `for(;;){}` loop with either break or continue as the jump points. I'm not saying goto is never a good idea. I just want to see a single good example.
