This is not a particularly common error and not a dangerous one, either,
as gcc will complain about this (to this date, whenever I use the return
value of an assignment in a loop-control expression in Perl because I
mean it, I experience a passing notion of thankfulness for not having to
put the *&£$%*@?! extra pair of parens around it ...)
