I was aware of TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE(), but I didn't meet such places.
All the code I'd changed fell into the simpler, scan'n'find, case.
I was removing bogus ifa->ifa_addr checks from the networking code,
and for some funny reason, almost each check found was sitting next
to an old for() loop begging to be turned into TAILQ_FOREACH().
Did I miss a great idea hidden behind that? :-)
