I have ... but not by choice.

I have a /copy source member that contains a commonly used subroutine
that I need to use, but can't justify rewriting it as a procedure (yet,
I'm working on it).  Rather than re-implement it locally, I simply
include the subroutine in the procedure and invoke it as usual.

Personally, I would like to convert the subroutine to a procedure and
have the /copy source member invoke the procedure instead of directly
invoking the code.
