        I found that a "standard register save area" is now defined by IBM 
as 128 bytes long.  That would be the original 72 bytes (18 full words) 
plus 56 bytes (an additional 14 full words).  But the links aren't working 
so I can't drill into any further details than that.  Does this mean it is 
only intended that 14 high halves should be saved/restored?  Would that 
omit registers 0 and 15, or what?


Sincerely,

Dave Clark
