In this specific case I used:
(last (take-while #(not (nil? %)) (iterate #(.getCause %) e)))
However, a separate function would also work. That is not
the point. One can work around it. But I try to follow the
principle of least surprise as much as possible. So when
valid looking code doesn't work for an obscure reason, this
certainly is a surprise.
I have no problem putting the loop into a dedicated function.
Or find some equivalent way to express it. However then it
should be documented somewhere, that this is actually
necessary. ("for technical reasons loop/recur cannot be
used in/at/for....")
Sincerely
