The main purpose of "for" in C is to collect all the loop control
pieces together on a single line to make them more evident:

	for ( p = head.next; p != &head; p = p->next )
		...

Certainly this particular can be accomplished in numerous ways,
but it's hard to imagine anything that would be clearer than that.
