[]FMT Bug

Here's a bug with []FMT with a really long format string.  Bug occurs in APL versions 5.2.10 and 6.0.10 (and probably others).

I tried it several times and then got a "Memory could not be read".

 

This was APL 5.2.10

No problem in version 4.0.03 v5.2.11 and 6.2 and 6.4 beta - errors after several tries, then APLW fails. If you put the code in a function and localize the variables, you still get the same wierd characters, but APLW does not crash.
