Implicit in this is the important notion that these 'stubs' should be stored in a library that contains only NCAL program objects (or load modules). There is even a [small] performance benefit associated with this practice. The binder processes its own outputs more efficiently and rapidly than it does translator-generated object modules, which should have only very brief, transition-state lives.
