If you drop foo. and don't set any new values for, e.g., foo.bar, then a 
request for N (next) will return only foo. I wouldn't expect drop foo.baz to 
change that.

How, after "... a stem is used as the target of an assignment [and] all 
possible compound variables
whose names begin with that stem receive the new value ..." (TSO Rexx 
reference) and a random
symbol with that stem is then dropped, does IRXEXCOM report the otherwise 
unidentified tail?
