It can get even worse:

\ test99.fs
99
.s
\ end of file test99.fs

bigforth test99.fs
<2> 0 99
                       ANS bigFORTH 386-Linux rev. 2.1.0

.s <0>  ok

It looks to me as if there are two bugs, one putting the zero on the
stack, the other doing a clearstack after interpreting the file.

Even if I think it is usually very problematic if a file puts or removes
something from the stack, there *can* be legitimate uses for that. IMHO
bigFORTH should not do that ;-)

I think 'bigforth file' should do the equivalent of 'INCLUDE file' or
' s" file" INCLUDED'.

INCLUDE works as expected, as does 's" file" INCLUDED'.
