 Major things wrong here.  The address of the variable you are using is a
 Forth logical address, but you really need a segment and offset for
 JMPFI.  Use ADDR>S&O to convert the logical address to a segment and
 offset, put the latter in the variable, then use JMPFI.  There are many
 other subtle features of CODE and PROC definitions related to the
 contents of the segment registers, the mapping of logical to physical
 addresses, and so on.
