Thanks. The #pragma was the answer. We had tried that but thought it wasn't
working for some reason.
Now for the next question: this allows us to implement variable parameter lists
in C, by declaring the functions thus:
int SOMEFUNCTION(char *someparm, ...);
Is there an equivalent way to do this in PL/I?

Yes.
In the declare of the subroutine, specify the word LIST in the last
argument descriptor, for example:
dcl avgyx entry (fixed bin(31),
fixed decimal(7,2) optional,
char (8),
list byaddr)
options(asm);
This indicates there are zero or more arguments from the point
of the LIST
Then, in the invocation, pass at least as many arguments as
arguments before the word LIST and any others you want:
call avgyx (test_no,
weight,
test_name,
rand_var,
score_low,
score_high);
Again, this is from our course "Cross Program Communication in z/OS"
see http://www.trainersfriend.com/Language_Environment_courses/m520descr.htm
for details of the course.
