Covers the runtime half of control_words.c fully: (BRANCH), (0BRANCH),
(?DO), (DO), (LOOP), (+LOOP), (LEAVE), UNLOOP, I, J, EXIT. The "vm_ip as
raw pointer" gap flagged at every earlier resume point turns out not to
need a new model extension -- return_stack-held addresses dereference into
vm->memory exactly like @/! addresses from the data stack, so the existing
mem_read/unat machinery from StarForth_Memory_Words covers it directly.
The compile-time half (IF/ELSE/THEN, BEGIN/WHILE/REPEAT/AGAIN/UNTIL, the
compiling halves of ?DO/DO/LOOP/+LOOP/LEAVE, CASE/OF/ENDOF/ENDCASE) is left
unmodelled, not from a model gap but a genuine architectural finding:
Headline finding, not fixed: every compile-time control-flow word operates
on FILE-SCOPE C statics (cf_stack/cf_sp, cf_last_mode, leave_addrs/leave_sp,
endof_addrs/endof_sp, and their mark-stacks) -- none are struct VM fields,
none are keyed by VM instance. In the Tripod multi-VM fleet, two VMs
compiling control structures at overlapping times corrupt each other's
IF/DO/CASE nesting through this shared global state, and a VM whose
compilation aborts mid-structure leaves stale cf_sp/leave_sp/endof_sp state
for whichever VM compiles next. cf_epoch_sync's mode-transition reset
heuristic is itself keyed off a single global (cf_last_mode), not per-VM,
so it can neither reliably detect nor reliably avoid false resets across
VMs. Modelling these words against vm_state would require either inventing
a field the real implementation doesn't have (silently fixing the bug in
the proof) or modelling a bare global with no plumbing precedent in this
suite -- both out of scope, left as documented gaps.
