Infinite loop in execline

I'd like to write an infinite loop in an execline script, that keeps
going regardless of the result of the contents of the loop.

Of course, I could do loopwhilex foreground { ... }.
I'd have expected the simpler loopwhile -x "" to work, though.
It seems like the empty comma-separated list of exit codes is not
allowed. Maybe it could be?
