APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
Compiling at -O3 is causing a function's stack frame to be deallocated before the end of the function. Local stack variables that are still live may be used invalidly, and writing to them might cause stack corruption.
Local fix
- Do not use optimization

Problem conclusion
Code analysis was modified to consider operands of arithmetic operations. The issue is now resolved.
