Of course this contradicts the conventional English notion of
"any" in that it excludes AMODE64.  Granted that conventional
words may be overloaded with technical terms with specialized
meaning, but such direct confrontation should be avoided.

If Binder marks a load module AMODE(ANY), you say that
ATTACH (e.g.) passes it control in the caller's AMODE, right?
If a load module is marked AMODE(24) or AMODE(31), will
ATTACH pass it control in that AMODE regardless of the
caller's addressing mode?
