Yes, it's a bug in STextTable.  It calls Text.Compare with
NIL arguments.   The language report specifies that passing
NIL to any procedure in the Text interface is a checked runtime
error.  Early releases of SRC Modula-3 didn't adhere to this
piece of the specification.  Version 1.6 does.  We'll fix
STextTable for the next release.

Thanks for the bug report.
