   Continually?  Modula-2 certainly contains a LOOP ... END that can only   
   be left through an EXIT statement.  Reading   
   <11-01-055@comp.compilers>, it seem that this feature was also present   
   in Oberon from 1989 to 2007.  Pascal had the GOTO statement that could   
   be used for this purpose.
