Since you put your code under MIT license, there is AFAIK
no legal way to combine it with amforth (GPL). IANAL && IMHO.

The file included was the reference implementation. I have no plans
to implement these words in the near future (had no use for them for
years).

I hope, Keith would comment on it as well. Another strategy for
the constants would be to read the files twice. The first pass
extracts the constant definitions and the second pass uses
them. If the replacement really saves code space (every literal
uses 2 cells in the dictionary).
