EXIT is portable as much as DUP DROP are portable.
That's why I suggest a RETURN word, so you don't have
to research how to do it in a system or another.
It's a nice word to have in Forth due to the forth nature.
In other languages it is almost impossible I think
(anyway not that simple and elegant as in forth).

Also, ?EXIT is another nice word to have.
Implementation may be different among the systems
but once you have it right, it's usefull and elegant.
