It does make porting easier.  Gforth EC has replacement code for most
primitives for that reason.  When porting to a new architecture, you
just need to define and debug about 10 primitives at first, and the
rest will be covered by the replacement code.  Then you can add new
primitives one-by-one, and you see immediately, if the new one is
buggy.  Or you can add a whole bunch of primitives, and if the system
does not work, comment half of them out for binary search of where
the bug is.
