I would guess because you can create your own procedure that could be named
the same as one of the C api's which would then cause problems if it was
automatically included.  Like what if I created an RPG ILE procedure called
'open', wouldn't that cause a compilation error stating that the procedure
had been exported from two different modules?  I am not sure, that is why I
am asking.

Yes, and why isn't BNDDIR('QC2LE') implied by now? Why do we have to
specify it anymore? I mean, really.
