RE: ILE - Tried to refer to an object that no longer exists...

This is probably not worded quite right, but I'm pretty sure that until the
caller's activation group ends, any service program compiled *caller
persists within the scope of the activation group as invoked--even though it
may been recompiled.  If the caller is running in the default activation
group the only way to end the caller's activation group is to end the
session.
