Summary: goto's into blocks (gack)

I don't have the Oct. draft, so this may be covered, but...

What is the definition about 'goto' where the target is an enclosed
block?  In particular:
    ...
    a = 3
    goto l;
    ...
    {
        int i = a;
      l: ;
        printf("%d\n", i);
    }
is the initializing assignment to i done or not?  Or is this illegal (as
it should be!)?
