while 1 label "matt_is_a_poopie_head" do
  ...
  exit "matt_is_a_poopie_head"
end while

Of course, an undefined exit takes you out of the latest loop.

while 1 do
  exit
end while

or something like this:

while 1 do "getrdone"
  while 1 do "inner_while"
    if y then
      exit "getrdone"
    else
      exit "getrdone"
    end if
end while

but I still say for loops need no label. :)
