And in any case, in the early 80s, we had Forth standards every few years, 
and they all introduced new stuff and got rid of old stuff, and there were 
two-headed dragons to be rescued and maidens to be conquered or so...

People back then complained about TRUE being suddenly -1, division being 
suddenly floored, and NOT being suddenly a bit operator, when they switched 
from figForth to L&P's F83.  F83 was a great Forth!  It just wasn't exactly 
the same as figForth.
