Yay! Finally I've been waiting for this for a long time.

I can finally get rid of some spaghetti code: goto emulation via while loops.

Yes, it's not often you need goto, but sometimes you do.

No way! I do exactly this. Switch statement, while loop, and lots of continue statements.

Its a lowering of basic blocks that I want to print out to test.

What's yours?
