Shouldn't it be a part of CORE "OBS" ... ? If it's _truly_ obsoleted, why does A.6.1.2033 say POSTPONE only replaces MOST of the functionality of COMPILE and [COMPILE]? Wouldn't POSTPONE need to replace ALL the functionality to obsolete [COMPILE]? A.6.1.2033 only states "... [COMPILE] has been moved in favor of POSTPONE". That doesn't say it's obsolete. Why the word "moved" is misused is a mystery, unless it originally said "removed". ANS 94 had section D.6.7 on "Immediacy" which demonstrates *three* situations where COMPILE and [COMPILE] can't be replaced completely by use of POSTPONE. Two are in the body and one is at the end. However, it only demonstrates a solution for only one of the situations. I.e., there seems to still be two situations which need [COMPILE]. Rod Pemberton
