I have used that piece of code for years.    I think that the problem is
with the font used to set the blue book.  I had real fits with some of the
code there.  Specifically, there is a line that reads

()dup 0 charcode put....  OR SO IT SEEMS, when you look at it in the blue book.
It is realy

( ) dup 0 charcode put... NOTE, THERE IS A SPACE between the ()!  It is not
apparent in the blue book.
