Your Vax Forth net.sources files made it through the news intact 
(to here at least) -- the word counts and check sums came out correctly.

The assembly problem appears to arise from a mis-spelling in the file prim.as.
After changing "index" to "indx" in line 357 everything assembles 
and seems to work fine.

357c357
< 	movw *$size,*$index	/* if seeking buffered file, reset buffer */
---
> 	movw *$size,*$indx	/* if seeking buffered file, reset buffer */
