So, you're going to change your code for just one word used by Gforth?
(I'm surprised Hugh hasn't made a snide comment on that yet.)

Clearly, B is non-standard and not needed for your tests.  Why not just
redefine B to be B etc?  Can't it be argued that Gforth shouldn't have
used B for a word? ...
