According to this talk:
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/ohctkdnupmbprglobwtc@forum.dlang.org#post-axonofactkyzpagilcbm:40forum.dlang.org

The spec does NOT state it should work that way.

Even if it did:
- Doing it this way buys nothing, as you get the same result simply by... not
typing the block
- Is bug prone (accidental labeling)
- Potentially creates different behavior from C code.

NB: The original example is wrong because of shadowing. But this one is more
viable.

//----
void main()
{
    {
        uint foo;
    } end_first_block:

    {
        uint foo;
    } end_second_block:

    {
        uint foo; //main.d(12): Error: declaration main.main.foo is already
defined
    } end_third_block:

    return;
}
//----
