Because you specify a target release when you do the save.  Something
like:
   SAVLIB LIB(OPNSRC) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/MYSAVF) TGTRLS(V3R2M0)

You save it to the earliest target release that your code will work on...
At least that's what I do.   (I'm one of those people who has open source
AS/400 stuff on the web, in save file format...)
