(#8666684)
this feature [label address-of operator] is implemented as a nonstandard extension by most production grade C and C++ compilers
This feature is entirely a GCC extension, and is only implemented by "production grade" compilers to the extent that they try to be compatible with source that compiles with GCC.
Many - I'd guess, probably a majority of - C compilers that people consider "production grade" do not in fact understand this construct.
