I suspect he meant "I can't see much in C++ that would eliminate, in
C++, the use-cases that, in C, justify the use of goto."

The only reasonably plausible justifications I've seen for using "goto"
are for error handling, and the kind of error handling that justifies
using "goto" is handled somewhat more easily in C++ by using exceptions,
but I'm not at all surprised if Bart can't see that.
