I meant:
let (x) { for (x = 0; x < 10; x++) {...x...} }
or
let (x = 0) { for (; x < 10; x++) {...x...} }
('let ... in' is similar to the 'local ... in' syntax that Oz uses, and
I think it reads better, but it can't be used in ECMAScript because
the part to the right of the identifier is ambiguous with an application
of the 'in' operator.)
