Are you thinking of implementing INTERPRET/COMPILE: portably.  One way
to do this would be to record the xts of all words defined with
INTERPRET/COMPILE:.  ' and POSTPONE then check if the word they are
dealing with has one of these xts, and if so, do the appropriate
thing.

Unfortunatley this hinges on the ability to get the xt of every word
(which ' is not guaranteed to do) and get a predictable result (which
FIND is not guaranteed to do), so I don't think one can write a
program that is clearly standard-compliant to does this.
