List field behavior

[Björnke von Gierke]

I cannot replicate what you are experiencing. Could it be that you use 
an old version of rev?
Maybe your stack is corrupt? did you try this in a fresh stack directly 
after starting rev?
Also make sure that you do not use "put empty into line 2 of field 1" 
as this would generate the behavior you describe.
