Is that for real?  On current systems where people also use Forth, not
some relic from the era where the debug cycle involved waiting for a UV
eprom eraser?  Even on such systems, it was often possible to do most of
the development and testing on a larger machine, then port to the
embedded target.  

These days I don't think it takes more than a few seconds to compile a
reasonable size C program and flash it into an Arduino.
