Howdy, I'll spare you the journey (unless you're curious) but by changing one of the parameters to the compiler (IGYCRCTL), the program compiles and link edits. The procedure that we used had an exit for PRTEXIT. It specified EX(INX(''LGSEQ'',RW),PRTX(RW)) I changed the PRTX(RW) to NOPRTX and added //SYSLIST DD SYSOUT=* and bingo, it worked!
Now, why PRTX(RW) caused problems, I don't know. It worked with an older version of the program but not the newer one. From my limited understanding of exit modules, specifying PRTX(RW) loads the exit module RW for processing/handling output instead of SYSLIST. What exactly is RW here? Is an executable module, subroutine or whatever? I don't know where they will go from here, but at least in the short term we're not blocked by being unable to compile. Thanks for your help folks.

I honestly don't know how the limit would show up if restricted by an SMF exit.
