GCC has an extension that can be used instead of the do-while loop, see example macro definition here: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Statement-Exprs.html

Agreed. Whether rust has copied its features - I don't know, but I have re-implemented many of Ada's features for several projects in other languages (mostly C), so it seems there is an amount of basic features like storage pools&

Here are some non-invasive, type-safe data structures in C that are based on macros and GCC builtins (Should also build with recent Clang). When writing prioq_pop(), I figured it would be simpler to generate code by replacing text with sed&
