Simon:

That is why I asked. I had programming developed on I think V4R4 (maybe 4.5) 
and restored the *PGM to a V5R1 system. The restore didn't succeed in giving me 
an executeable *PGM because the APIs (exports) couldn't be found in the 
referenced *SRVPGM. It was necessary to come up with a messy workaround.

My memory says it was getenv()/putenv() but I wanted to see if anybody could 
help. If those don't show up as I remember, then I'm going to do more digging 
to see if I can track down exactly what APIs were involved. Quite a while ago 
now, but it happened at the V5R1 upgrade.
