Would you be bold enough to write
if (i++ == INT_MAX) break? The result of the increment is never used, but an increment is being done, at least syntactically, and it overflows, at least theoretically, so maybe (I'm not 100% sure) the compiler could be allowed to break out into song because undefined behaviour allows anything to happen.
