So I found what looks like two patches being completely broken because
the conversion was fundamentally misguided.

And honestly, by the end of walking through the patches I was just
scanning so quickly that I might have missed some.

Let's make the rule be that

 - max 10 patches in the series so that I think they were actually
thought about, and people can actually review them

 - only clear "goto out of scope" conversions. When you see a
"continue" or a "goto repeat", you TAKE A BIG STEP BACK.

Because this is all clever, and I am now happy with the syntax, but I
am *not* happy with that 60-patch monster series with what looks like
horrible bugs.
