Er, perhaps I'm badly missunderstanding you, but wouldn't:
loop;  S  while !B:  T;  repeat;
Translate fairly literally in to: 
{ S while !B; T; redo; }

In which case I don't understand your "practical perlish way".

    S and T should be done on every iteration, except when B goes true, in which case the final T should be skipped. Your syntax seems to do a lot of S repetitions then one T, and repeats endlessly.
