In various other cases I've found that list_for_each_safe() is
actually not safe, and so I've had to switch to that same sort
of while-not-empty idiom.

This makes me wonder about either compiler issues or basic
semantic issues with the definition of "safe" ... I leaned
towards thinking that "safe" was a misnomer, probably just
shorthand for "safe_except_for_what_you_really_want".
