// run-pass

// A test for something that NLL enables. It sometimes happens that
// the `while let` pattern makes some borrows from a variable (in this
// case, `x`) that you need in order to compute the next value for
// `x`.  The lexical checker makes this very painful. The NLL checker
// does not.
