This edition applies to Version 5, Release 1, Modification Level 0, of IBM® 
WebSphere® Development Studio for
iSeries (5722-WDS), ILE RPG compiler, and to all subsequent releases and 
modifications until otherwise indicated in
new editions. This edition applies only to reduced instruction set computer 
(RISC) systems.
This edition replaces SC09-2508-02.

and it really helps me a lot.
