Nested Repeat loops

Wondering if anyone has an elegant way of exiting all the way out of a set
of nested repeat loops., e.g:

repeat for...
   repeat for...
      repeat for....
         repeat for
            if ..... then <I want to exit out of the outermost repeat loop
here>
         end repeat
         <do this and that>
      end repeat
      <do this and that>
   end repeat
   <do this and that>
end repeat

Right now, I set a flag to true when the exit condition is met then test it
in the <do this and that> stuff.  Works fine but feels a little kludgy.
