In Gforth, in the case of ORDER, we know that we want to pront a
wordlist name, so we look right behind the memory for the wordlist for
a constant that points to that wordlist.

For general constants, you could search through all words, looking for
constants that have that value.

If that's too slow for your needs (and you have memory to burn): Every
CONSTANT inserts a <value,nt> pair into a lookup table (implemented,
e.g., as hash table), where the value is the key, and you use that to
translate from the value to the constant name if available.
