[daip] Bug? multiple commands per line

RUN is a pseudo-verb.  That means it is processed and executed while
the line is being parsed.  The = verb is an ordinary verb.  So it
would be processed after the line is parsed and compiled.  In this
case, RUN takes over the line parsing, compilation, and execution is
terminated prematurely.  HELP RUN will tell you that RUN must be the
only command on the line.  So far as I can see, that is impossible to
change.

BTW - I have been fooled with this too.
