We are at release V5R3M0. and have just encountered a bug which may be of interest.
It's not a defect. That's how it works. Local variables override global variables of the same name. Constants are no different from other fields in RPG.
While it might be nice if the compiler used a separate name space for constants it doesn't so it's not a defect but possibly a design flaw. Effectively "working as designed".
