/// The effective nesting of loops is different from the lexical nesting, since
/// recursive continuations can generally contain all the code following 
/// after the loop in addition to the looping code itself.
/// 
/// For example, the 'else' branch below is not effectively part of the loop:
/// 
///   let rec kont x = 
///     if (<loop condition>) 
///       <loop body>
///       InvokeContinuation kont x'
///     else 
///       <after loop>
///       return p.foo()
/// 
/// We use the term "loop" to mean recursive continuation.
/// The `null` value is used to represent a context not part of any loop.
