What Ladislav says is correct, and this is _NOT_ a bug. This is a
pretty fundamental aspect of how REBOL datatypes work.
MAKE creates a new datatype and
TO converts a datatye.
MAKE file! 44
creates a new file! with room for 44 characters, which is very much
like:
MAKE string! 44
whereas...
TO-FILE 44
converts the integer 44 into a file!, which is very much like:
TO-STRING 44
The standard way that datatypes are converted to series is that
they are FORMed.
