APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
IGYPG3327-U Code generation is seen when using FUNCTION RANDOM. This happens when using compile time option ARITH(EXTEND).
Local fix
Use compiler option ARITH(COMPAT). If that's impossible, consider writing a small subroutine that only has a single statement in it for the FUNCTION RANDOM. Compile that one with ARITH(COMPAT). Call this small subroutine when you need a random number.
Problem summary
FUNCTION RANDOM gives IGYPG3327-U error.
Problem conclusion
Solved by COBOL for AIX version 4.1.1.7.
