"extend" is a bit vague. You'll get C code that you can
do many things with, some of them approved of and supported,
and some not. I have to build it and play with it before I can
decide what to officially support.

Yes.

Normal subroutine calls will be done using C calls.
It's the other control flow that is implemented with gotos.
(if / while / for / exit ...)

No. I'm not planning to make major changes to the language
just because there is now a compiler. If you want to hack
the C code, you can probably achieve a lot of interesting things,
but don't expect me to help you when your program
starts crashing.
