I just noticed that according to the stack comment above, there is a "current" item on the stack...

           BEGIN
-            part-start read-sector          \ read EBR
+            part-start read-sector-ret          \ read EBR
+            block-size < IF UNLOOP 0 EXIT THEN

... which doesn't get dropped here before the EXIT ? Is the stack still right after this function exited early?

Similar question here, what about the "addr" stack item? Shouldn't it be dropped first?
