As a special, non-stack-based case, there's the gob engine, which has
opcodes for if, switch, while-do and repeat-until. They evaluate their
complex expression and "recurse" into the destination address.

Of course, it could be reorganized to only feature direct
jump($address) opcodes by a middle-tier between gobscript and the
decompiler.
