cmd/compile: double error when break is not in a loop

[alicebob]

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go version devel go1.19-d3fe4e193e Thu Mar 3 16:02:44 2022 +0000 linux/amd64

and

go version go1.18rc1 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

(edit) No, on 1.17.7 it's a single error.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you expect to see?

A single error

What did you see instead?

harmen@umount:/tmp$ go run foo.go
# command-line-arguments
./foo.go:4:2: break is not in a loop, switch, or select
./foo.go:4:2: break is not in a loop, switch, or select statement

Thanks for reporting this. Tentatively putting it in the 1.19 milestone because it's a (non-serious) 1.18 regression.
