Since 887d89f (Feb 22 2011), 'perldoc -f goto' has claimed: "goto EXPR" is exempt from the "looks like a function" rule. A pair of parentheses following it does not (necessarily) delimit its argument. "goto("NE")."XT"" is equivalent to "goto NEXT". However, no test was added to demonstrate this claim; provided herewith. Fixes: GH Perl#23806 In passing: Remove trailing whitespace from several existing lines.
