Follow-up Comment #6, patch #7653 (project freeciv):

Syntax summary, "do s while e" for a statement s and an expression e can have
the form "do s while 1" (forever) and "do s while 0" (once). 

Both are perfectly valid, but writing "s" has the same effect as "do s while
0". 45 years old syntax, all I asked was if those "do s while 0" instead of
"s" have a known purpose. 

The 20 years old http://freeciv.wikia.com/wiki/Coding_Style#Miscellaneous does
not discuss it, and that's as it should be.
