IIRC, this is some parameter-passing convention of cc65. It serves to
get something into main()'s argc/argv. Since there is no real
free-format command line passing in BASIC.SYSTEM, you'd say CALL
<address>:REM <parameters> to give parameters to a BLOADed cc65-compiled
piece of code. I guess this is somehow related to that.
