Note that your implementation acts a little different from subhra's
version. In subhra's version 'a could be a function. If the function
returns 0 it will be handled as though 'a was directly assigned the value 0.

In your version a function that returns 0 is not handled like a word that
directly references the value 0:
>> a: 0
== 0
>> arbit
0
This is true
== true
>> a: func [] [0]
>> arbit
?function?
False
== false
