Sorry for all the background.  What I'm looking for are "high-half"
versions of  LA and BCTR commands, so that the incrementing and
decrementing could be done with 2 statements per CSECT--without affecting
the low halves of the register.  For example in 31-bit land if R2 was
always available, I could say "LA  R2,1(R2)" at the start of the modules,
and "BCTR R2,0"  at the end.  In this case reg 2 would always be the stack
level.


Add Immediate High (AIH). But when was it introduced...? There are no
change bars in the  -10 edition of the PofO, so before then.

Wouldn't it be necessary to clear the high half first?
