NB: This deeply effected HardenedBSD which had a default value set.
Embarassingly, I allowed the `type' primitive to be passed -1/-1 for
c-addr/u stack input (the effect of which is to pull INT_MAX bytes
from character address negative one in which hilarity ensues over a
black screen in full-on bootlock). Much thanks to Shawn Webb [lattera]
for helping me diagnose.
NB: The mode-ending revisions were initially suspected (and reverted)
but proved to be a red-herring. Proper mode endings will be returning.

vocabularies delay-processing, password-processing, version-processing,
frame-drawing, menu-infrastructure, menu-namespace, menu-command-helpers,
and menusets-infrastructure. The net effect is to remove almost 200
definitions from the main forth vocabulary reducing the dictionary size
by over 50%. The chances of hitting "dictionary full" should be greatly
reduced by this patch.

and add support for default underride to $loader_version, acting as a way to
name a release. Release text is not displayed for the aforementioned feature
of alternate display layout (introduced in r254237); however, for all other
layouts (incl. default), the release name is displayed at lower-right.
See version.4th(8) for additional information and/or historical details.
NOTE: Also a minor edit to version.4th(8) while we're here.
Discussed on hackers and recommended for inclusion into 9.0 at the devsummit.
