I'm going to ignore these.  I've never seen the long string cause any
problem on any compiler I ever used to build JtR.

Fixed.

I think these are spurious (gcc bug?), but I've now worked around them
anyway by swapping the "int ..." and "const int ..." lines.

compiler.c provides fallback code for non-gcc, with no dependency on
computed gotos.  It runs 2-3 times slower, though.
