It is unclear to me how this would even work.  "variable" is
a reserved identifier, and so cannot be used in this context.

	slsh> variable x = [1:100:1];
	slsh> newvar = @variable;
	<stdin>:2: Expecting a PRIMARY: found 'variable'
	<stdin>:2:<top-level>:Syntax Error

After which

	slsh> is_defined("newvar");

returns 

	0

as expected.  What application/version are you trying this within?

HTH,
Mike
