PARSE-NAME gives you addresses into the input buffer (and that's
required by the standard; if you find a case where Gforth does not
comply with that, please report it as a bug).  Gforth reuses the input
buffer on REFILL, but as long as you don't REFILL, the result produced
by each invocation of PARSE stays valid.
