I've tested both versions with gcc 4.7.3 [1] and 4.8.5 [2]. With 4.7.3 my 
version is 4 bytes longer, and with 4.8.5 it's 4 bytes shorter. Interestingly 
enough the "break + test after loop" pattern doesn't make a difference, it's 
only the intermediate variable that results in changes to the generated code.

[1] arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc (crosstool-NG 
linaro-1.13.1-4.7-2013.02-01-20130221 - Linaro GCC 2013.02) 4.7.3 20130205 
(prerelease)

[2] arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabihf-gcc.br_real (Buildroot 2016.08-dirty) 
4.8.5
