Note: these are my comments and not Rob's.
I note that not all of the uses of goto are neccessary.
Here's an example of what I refer to:
  if (buffer[0] == '#' || buffer[0] == '\n') goto free_buffer;
  //parse buffer here
free_buffer:
  free(buffer);
can readily become
  if (buffer[0] != '#' && buffer[0] != '\n') {
    //parse buffer here
  }
  free(buffer);
Of course, for a buffer there's toybuf, which is not to be free()ed.
There will be places where you need to use goto if you don't check 
3 different variables, but for cases where you aren't jumping out of 
a loop, the if () {} approach makes it much clearer that the code
is conditionally executed.
Thanks,
Isaac Dunham
