Reminds me of the "siga" variables in Marcel's code, which are basically
everywhere in the parser:

static NODE_T *
top_down_series (NODE_T *p)
{
  bool siga = true;
  while (siga)
    {
      siga = false;
      p = top_down_skip_unit (p);
      if (p != NO_NODE)
	{
	  if (a68_is_one_of (p, SEMI_SYMBOL, EXIT_SYMBOL, COMMA_SYMBOL, STOP))
	    {
	      siga = true;
	      FORWARD (p);
	    }
	}
    }
  return p;
}

("siga" means "Please continue" in Spanish)

I now use the same custom in my own code..
