RPG, SQL and Journaling

I am working on my next open source project and have run into another
weird one.

I have built a screen program using ILE RPG with SQL for database I/O.
Tables are all defined with DDL. All modules are compiled with
COMIIT(*NONE) and a display of the modules with a DSPMOD show COMMIT(*NONE)
but when I attempt to do a UPDATE operation on a field in a database table
the program crashes with an error saying I must have a journal for
commitment control.

I tried adding SET OPTION COMMIT = *NONE but the same result.

I have been writing programs like this for years and never ran into this.
This system is at V7R3.

Has IBM changed RPG to now require that a table be journaled? Nothing I can
find in the documentation says that.

Thanks.
