1) push some temp declarations inside blocks
2) use sort:
3) remove use of doWhileTrue:

The only value added by #doWhileTrue: vs #whileTrue is to return the value of receiver block.
The senders did not even use this return value, so this usage is absolutely void...
Well, not exactly void, it also deoptimize the method (I presume we don't care).

1) Given these are the two sole senders of doWhileTrue:
2) Given that I personnally misunderstand doWhileTrue: (at first read, I thought it would be equivalent to whileTrue:)
I militate for deprecation of doWhileTrue:
Opinions ?
