I have discovered a slight bug in vc that prevents the +/ and */
operators working on a Pyramid.  It is quite simple really, in
interp.c, just after the clause for O_REDUCE(+) there is a declaration
for the variable to hold the running total of the summation or product:
	register double v;
v is never initialized, hence you will get garbage on the stack as
an initial value (a real nasty on a Pyramid).  Change it to
	register double v = 0.0;
