[PicForth] Problem running picforth

Hello,

I've just downloaded picforth 0.31 and followed the instructions (I think!).

I'm getting the following error when I try to start up interactively:

gforth picforth.fs -e 'host picquit'
redefined tcode  redefined set-wrt  redefined S, with s,  redefined 
UNREACHABLE with unreachable  redefined >number  redefined parser  redefined 
interpret
in file included from *the terminal*:0
picforth.fs:2047: Undefined word
: pic'quit ( -- ) begin .status cr (query) interpret prompt again ;
                                   ^^^^^^^
Backtrace:
$40057DCC throw
$400637F0 no.extensions
make: *** [interactive] Error 1

On fixed space font, the error indicates 'query' is the offending word.

By now, you'll probably have realised I don't know a great deal about forth, 
but any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Nick

PS I'm not on the mailing list so a reply including me specifically would be 
good
