How about this ptf? The day I first fired up an AS/400 I could not
compile an RPG program with more than one file in it. My initial thought
was that IBM took this modular programming concept a bit too extreme (I
was migrating from a S/36). Turns out there was a PTF to fix that. I
could just imagine them 'working around that'.
Alas, a lot of shops have this mentality "if it isn't broke, don't fix
it". And keep redefining 'broke' to allow them to not upgrade OS or put
PTF's on.
