The Signal handling in Object REXX

The handling of the halt signal seems to be buggy in Object-Oriented REXX; for example the signal handling does not work in the following REXX program.
[Tested with OBJREXX 6.00 12 Jul 1996]
[Fixed in OBJREXX 6.00 26 Feb 1997 and newer versions (included in WARP 4 Fixpack #6)]
