Beg to differ, PREFIX _can_ have quotes. From the RPG IV manual:

The PREFIX keyword allows the specification of a character string or character literal which is to be prefixed to the subfield names of the externally described data structure being defined.

So, PREFIX(Gv) and PREFIX('GV') are no different - note uppercase in the latter. The use of quotes is essential in this situation, PREFIX('GV_') or PREFIX('GV.').

HTH,
Brian.

Note the PREFIX cannot have quotes, but the EXTNAME needs them.
