CM: A possible obscure problem with (thread) vs. List command

[Larry Troxler]

It seems that if you use the "thread" macro specifying the name of the
thread as a string instead of a symbol, everything seems to work, except
that the stella "list" command fails with the invalid reference message.

It took my a while to figure out why this was happening, since the call to
"thread" never complained. 

So, I don't know if it's supposed to be legal to specify the thread name
as a string. But if legal, than maybe something's wrong in the
"parseref"
function (it tries to find a symbol with the same print-name as the
string, and there is none). 

If not legal, then maybe "thread" should complain.


The third possibility, of course, is that I don't understand something
:-)
