The reported difficulties with the new Gforth snapshot are located.
There are only two minor points left:
* LOOK does not like very long word names
* BREAK: does not work any more
I have a special test suite in my brew program which stresses a Forth
system quite heavy and 0.5.9-20030201 passes the test without any problems.
I had to shorten some very long word names to make it run, though.
The speed gain since 0.5.0 is quite impressing:
Gforth 0.5.9-20030201 Gforth 0.5.0
