Minor complexity: we have a freaky result due to
http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/overview.html#sec:Order-of-Execution

consider:
G20
F5
G1 X1
G21 F125 X100

according to NGC the F125 is taken as inches while the destination
is taken as mm!  I hate this special case and think we ought to
diverge from NGC if we overhaul units handling.  The length units
setting should be honored before anything else length-related is
read from the block.
