FWIW, I personally *always* use for loops when there isn't a compelling
reason to do otherwise. You know at a glance that

	for (i = 0; i < N; i++)

gets run N times and what i is going to be afterwards.

Sure, you may have to restructure other things, but I think it's almost
always worth it.

BR,
Jani.
