 >> Here in this shop, we have hundreds of legacy CL OPM driver type
programs that all have RCLACTGRP *ELIGIBLE at the end as part of their
cleanup routine.

Aarrrrggggghhhhhhhh!!!! - that is about the worst thing you could do.
*Eligible is so dangerous that Rochester no longer show it as an option on
the RCLACTGRP command prompt!  Check it out if you don't believe me!  I
suspect they would have removed it completely if it wasn't for
compatibility.  It is a nice feature to use for a quick clean-up IF YOU ARE
TESTING (sorry for shouting) but should NEVER be used in production code -
it is lethal.

 >> We have had many problems with MCH3402 errors and "object not found in
stack", etc.

I'm not surprised.
