So, defining CREATE in terms of : and ; and DOVAR
and also defining : in terms of :NONAME and WORD and CMOVE is
not possible?  Odd...

If :NONAME did not return an xt, what does it do differently from
CREATE other than not install a name?

I.e., it appears to me that :NONAME works much like HEADER, enough
so that it can be a low-level replacement for it.  In which case,
since CREATE is defined in terms of : and that can be defined in
terms of :NONAME, then :NONAME should be useable to construct
<BUILDS since it's defined in terms of CREATE or a word like
VARIABLE or CONSTANT which are, typically.

Make sense?  Or, still completely wrong?
