The only person who was allowed to copy your tutorial to the wiki is yourself, so that shouldn't be a problem.

For officialities sake:

I have taken notice of the CC0 license and its intended effects, and hereby declare that all my past and future contributions to the OSDev.org Wiki are licensed under the effect of the CC0.

Although I'm not sure that it is actually the case that you retain copyright on anything you write, regardless of the where and when.

The CC0 license is silly because you waive copyrights. This means someone else could claim the copyright and then sue the original author for copyright infringement...

(Am I infringing copyright by copy-pasting this statement?)

P.S.: I don't even remember what information I contributed (too back in the past) but anyway PD is ok for me.

Having been notified by PM that someone thinks this is important:

Yeah sure whatever. Anything I've ever written to the Wiki can be considered public domain. Hopefully this is sufficient?
The real problem with goto is not with the control transfer, but with environments. Properly tail-recursive closures get both right.
