I think you need to show us more, Steve. Such as, what is the base register
that ENDIFILE is using to address flags, and do both A and B have that
register set to the same value when they issue their GETs?

My original definition of the term 'ligature' should perhaps have been
more restrictive. The Latin verb ligare means just to bind; and there
are surgical ligatures, musical ligatures, etc., etc. My focus was on
typographic ligatures; and even they come in two flavors:

I'm just getting into really using relative addresses. In the past, I've
basically only been using Branch Relative (BRC or J..) instructions. So, no
problems, because instructions automatically align to a halfword boundry. But
I've starting using LARL for getting addresses. And I consistently

It seems like this is a great opportunity to use SLBGR, but I
don't have a lot of confidence in the right way to do this.
Suppose me ending timestamp is in datetimen and my starting
timestamp is in datetimes, defined this way:
There are three main reasons for flagging a relative target address: odd
boundary (as you noted), too far away, or in a different control section.
At the time HLASM added relative-address support, we thought that the
frequency of such addressing errors would be very low, so that separate
