Hi all

While checking to see if a script was overwriting any global words, I found
the LAYOUT function is using the word VAL in the global context. From the
View Console (Win98) on a fresh start without running the desktop and
without any user code in user.r:

>> val
== "imanXwin kludge"      ; hmm...
>> val: 23
== 23
>> layout [box "hello"]
>> val
== "hello"

So if I define the word VAL, the value will be wiped whenever the LAYOUT
function is called. Probably best to avoid using the word VAL until this is
fixed. It is interesting to note that the word VAL is defined as a local in
the layout function, but it leaks out from somewhere when layout is called.
