FWIW, a large code base I work on uses a variant of that style:

for (a; b; c) {
  d;
}

for (aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa; bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb;
    cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
) {
    d;
}

i.e. on the same line when it fits (the line length limitation); on the
next line along with the closing paren when it doesn't.

Some devs use yet another variant:

for (
    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa; bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb;
    cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
) {
    d;
}

Like Matt, I find the scope to be visually much better defined that way,
but of course I've seen and used that style for years, so YMMV.

Some might argue our variant is more consistent, in the sense the braces
are "right-left" in all cases. --D
