Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In an application with a mixture of Enterprise COBOL V5 and
  pre-COBOL V5 programs, using a file defined as EXTERNAL, an
  exception occurs in IGZEVEX.  The symptom will be either a s0c1
  due to a bad branch out of IGZEVEX at offset x'56' or a s0c4 in
  IGZEVEX at offset x'5E'.  The cause of the exception is an
  invalid address in reg12.
  

Local fix

• Compile all programs with either COBOL V5 or all with pre-COBOL
  V5.

  *                 with a mixture of pre V5 and V5+ programs,   *
  *                 where the programs have EXTERNAL VSAM files  *
