Why is `end' undefined?

I won't swear to it: but probably because labels are specific to their scope.  And/or because functions (even inline ones, technically) are anchored to their frame, so a 'goto' pointing outside that frame won't work.  Same reason this doesn't:

# void bob () {
#   L_inBob: ;
# }
#
# void foo () {
#   goto L_inBob;
# }
