for those that wonder about v() does (in the example deleted) the manual 
have the following to say:

v(N)
     Uses the return value of the command N in the current command, if N 
is positive. If it is negative, the return value of the Nth previous 
command is used (i.e., v(-1) uses the value of the previous command).


this was not an answer the question asked, just information for those 
interested in the problem.
