Oh yes I forgot to remark on that.  It triples the amount of stuff
pushed on the R stack at each call, and it's not clear to me how you're
supposed to get at the locals if you also use >R to store stuff in the
traditional way.  Maybe that's taken care of: I didn't check closely.
But that would require some bookkeeping, and it sounded like he wanted
the simplest possible compiler.  So overall it's either very
constraining or else not much than the more flexible gforth-style
locals.

I do remember the TI-99 Forth Alex(?) posts about here has something
like that, with 4 slots instead of 2.
