Ah, funnily enough, the minute I submitted this question, I thought of
that as something I had not tried and of course it worked (yeah, I bet
they all say that).
I had read the doco, but it did not find an example of a boolean
prototype. I interpreted what it did say as meaning that one should
pass an indicator variable at the time the call is made. In coding the
prototype I had been following a convention of always specifying a data
type as LIKE a data type defined in the JNI copy book. It had not
dawned on me to specify an 'n' in the D-spec data type column (or LIKE a
variable already defined that way) of the prototype.
Many thanks Barbara,
Peter

Right?
Prototype it as an indicator (type N), by value. See table 30 here:
