That implementation is broken:

: bla { a b } a b .s ;  ok
1 2 bla <2> 2 1  ok

The proper behaviour is:

: bla { a b } a b .s ;  ok
1 2 bla <2> 1 2  ok

A correct implementation in Forth-94 is available at

<http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/anslocal.fs>

(also in <http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/compat.zip>).

As mentioned, many systems support this syntax.
