Literal chopped off by varying when passed

["Bartell, Aaron L. (TC)" <ALBartell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I must be missing something here.  I am executing the following line of
code:

gNode = DOMXPath_getElem(gRoot: 'company/product': *Omit);

...here is what the PI looks like...

     D DOMXPath_getElem...
     D                 PI              *
     D pNode                           *   Value
     D pXPath                     32767A   Value Varying
     D pElemIter                      4P 0 Options(*Omit)

and when I go into debug and display the value of pXPath it shows
'mpany/product'.  When I view it in hex it is:

> EVAL pxpath:x                                                       
     00000     83969497 8195A861 97999684 A483A340   - company/product

I am guessing this is because 'co' is getting put into the "length"
characters, but should it be?  

Thanks In Advance,
