Dumb question time, I guess.

I installed Rebol on a Slackware system in its own directory under
/usr/local/src. I made a link to it from /usr/local/bin.
At the command line, I typed 'export REBEL_HOME=/usr/local/src/rebol'

When I execute rebol from the command line on the same terminal it ignores
the parameters that are in the home directory.

I wrote a short script to put in /usr/local/bin:

#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/local/src/rebol
rebol

When I run this, I get the message:

root 18:25:10 / # rebol
/usr/local/bin/rebol: fork: Try again

It does not appear that this program can be called without explicitly
changing to it's own directory before executing it )-:
