Sure, but the OP said his program didn't STOP. To me, that means it
did not even return. If he's using "didn't stop" to mean something
else, I'm sure he'll let us know. Also, he was surprised it compiled
at all.

Right. And the big question is, what exactly did the OP mean by "it does not stop"?

A RETURN would indeed be a terminate-and-stay-active.
A "linear-main procedure" disables The Cycle (and does so, I'd judge, more completely than simply ending with a RETURN, or setting on LR in the first statement).
