The words get-order and order do pretty much the same thing. The problem is their output is very different. The order word outputs list in unsigned format, and the get-order word output words in signed format. I think these and other words in vocabulary.fs should output their list in unsigned format because it is a lot friendlier to read than signed format. No matter which format wins, I suggest order and get-order should have the same output format. This change would eliminate any confusion someone might experience when using these words.

Hm.. get-order does not produce any output. It just puts the words on the stack...
