It is more than not recompiling everything. If the db change changed

Which is of course why my strategy of using program-described mode
only works if either (a) the program obtains the field definitions by
calling such system APIs as QDBRTVFD, QUSLRCD, QUSLFLD, and so forth,
or (b) the program is part of a closed system in which meta-data is
stored independently, and format changes are tightly controlled.

But if either or both of those conditions are true, then
program-described mode is absolutely wonderful.
