Indeed, why do you think I fixed the spec? :) But don't worry, we tend to do thing on the basis of forgiveness rather than permission, so I'm glad you did that or I wouldn't have noticed the $?PROGRAM problem. (The reason it can't be $?PROGRAM is that the name of the eventual executable program can't necessarily be known at compile time, which $? implies. $? variables have to be constants known at compile time.)
