Multitasker, set up the stack before you jump into the task.  Or to write 
PICK or some other obsure stack manipulation words you rarely use in high 
level at the start of the porting effort (Gforth EC does that for you).

Yes.  The people who stick to legacy forever aren't Freescale's customers, 
those all use the 8051.

The step from the 8 bit processors to the 68k (and ColdFire is just a 
simpler version of the 68k) was a quantum leap.  From a Forth point of view, 
the 8051 is pretty close to a "non-Forth-Processor", the smaller PICs 
definitely are non-Forth processors, you just can't do it.  The 68k is a 
very nice processor to implement Forth efficiently on.
