I'm not skilled in this art, but is your Enterprise PL/I (v3r9) also using
Language Environment or not?
He has no choice on this: all the new compilers _must_ use LE.
Then again, I always thought that the fastest instructions are those ones that
are never executed...
Those instructions don't need to be optimized... :-)
