[Sorry about the slightly facetious earlier response]

Right, here I am, back from teaching during my lunch break:

Ubuntu 8.04.3  RunRev 4

1. tried;

GO "subb"

[note witty inter-textual reference to some versions of BASIC]

free-standing substack in different location to main stack.

Go stack "subb"

exactly the same as #1

what am I missing?

No TAB and no overlapping window.....
