Parsing blunder. Something as simple as
'aa' =: \
fails. Will be fixed in next beta/release.
I don't understand 'turns out it cannot'. Are you reporting an error here?
I cannot find a problem with ". on non-noun producing non-empty. Please
give a testcase.

I saw this problem when J805 beta first released, but I don't like
reporting something that requires lots of code. Rewriting it this way made
me wonder if a verb could not create a verb. It turns out it cannot.
In trying to find a workaround, I also discovered that ". doesn't provide
an empty if the result is not a noun.
