   Opposite of PICK.  Overwrites a slot in the middle of the stack.  I saw   
   that name in another clf post pretty recently, idk if it is commonly   
   implemented.  I think I've also seen it called POKE.  I'd call it   
   barbaric from a stack programming perspective if done in user code, but   
   if the compiler does it in some specific implementation, I don't mind.
