HP-41C weird program behaviour

This program (posted by JurgenRo) does not ever end, if the machine is running properly. It is intended to be used to run forever, adding 1 in each loop, so that when you run it for a specified amount of time and press [R/S] the display shows you how many loops were completed within that time-span. There actually is no RTN or END needed, since it will never get there, as the GTO 01 is not conditional, it always loops. JurgenRo was using this to help his testing of his 41, to give it a task to run for an extended period to see if the 41 would continue running or not.
