What is there to reconsider? If I remove that HSPEC, the array is

requested in the CSPECS.


The OVERLAY(MYDS) keyword causes MYDS to be referenced, and that causes the compiler to load all the subfields of MYDS.

Arguably it's a bug in the compiler that it thinks a reference due to overlay should affect whether I spec fields get loaded or not, but the compiler tries to err on the side of caution for this I spec optimization.

Michael, you could code DUMP(A) and you wouldn't need the DEBUG keyword to get the dump.
