[perl #119943] RFE: localized state of $_ should carry across goto ⊂

To summarise the existing responses to this ticket: having "goto &foo" retain local-izations is 
incompatible with its entire raison d'être.  That's because "local" must save the data to be 
restored, and such saving would necessarily defeat the goal of having "goto &foo" delete the call 
frame of the routine that does it.

I'm therefore resolving this ticket as "rejected".
