If you binding language looks like below, guess what will happen if you
forgot/miss recompile an existing program that is still using one of the
*prv signature? This existing program will not get signature violation.
It just going to execute the wrong procedure when executing IFS_Proc2.

STRPGMEXP PGMLVL(*CURRENT)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc1)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc3)
ENDPGMEXP

STRPGMEXP PGMLVL(*PRV)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc1)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc2)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc3)
ENDPGMEXP

STRPGMEXP PGMLVL(*PRV)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc1)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc2)
ENDPGMEXP


STRPGMEXP PGMLVL(*PRV)
EXPORT SYMBOL(IFS_Proc1)
ENDPGMEXP

My personal preference is never use *prv. IMHO, it is quite

Can you write a little more on why you feel *PRV is dangerous? I've
used this exclusively since V3 and haven't encountered any problems...
I'm hoping I haven't missed something!
