What's with the RPG SQL Precompiler?

Actually it has less!  The reason it works is that the pre-compiler doesn't
understand it and therefore just ignores it and passes it on to the
compiler.  It is a good way of "hiding" syntax that the pre-compiler doesn't
understand (like nested /COPY or anything else much added to RPG in the last
5 years!)
