Comment (by ruud@…):

 Using WP_Query instead of query_posts seems like a more performant way of
 obtaining this small list of pages. Also this solves the initial 'problem'
 of having a 'in_the_loop=true' value.
 Somehow the 'in_the_loop=true' feels like a side-effect of the former/old
 method of getting posts for this specific purpose.
