No one has yet posted a Forth solution.  Perhaps this Ruby version
will be more understandable than the previous one.

def divisible( n, divisor )
  n.modulo(divisor).zero?
end

def one_more_digit( divisor, digits_so_far )
  digits_avail = (0 .. 9).to_a - digits_so_far
  base_for_new_number = digits_so_far.join.to_i * 10
  digits_avail.select{ |d| divisible( base_for_new_number + d, divisor )}.
    map{|d| digits_so_far + [d] }
end


Here's an example of how this function works:

one_more_digit( 4, [3, 8, 1] )
    ==>[[3, 8, 1, 2], [3, 8, 1, 6]]



candidates = [[]]
1.upto(10){|divisor|
  candidates = candidates.map{|digit_list|
    one_more_digit( divisor, digit_list) }.flatten(1) }
candidates

[[3, 8, 1, 6, 5, 4, 7, 2, 9, 0]]

Here's an example of how the "flatten" command works in Ruby:

[[[3, 8, 1, 2], [3, 8, 1, 6]]].flatten
    ==>[3, 8, 1, 2, 3, 8, 1, 6]
[[[3, 8, 1, 2], [3, 8, 1, 6]]].flatten(1)
    ==>[[3, 8, 1, 2], [3, 8, 1, 6]]
