Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.4 compiling a    *
  *                 COBOL program that contains a DEFINE         *
  *                 directive in the false branch of a           *
  *                 conditional compilation directive where the  *
  *                 DEFINE directive references an undefined     *
  *                 compilation variable.                        *

  *                      A value of 1 was assumed for the        *
  *                      variable.                               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the IBM-provided PTF                   *
  ****************************************************************
  The compiler was incorrectly processing an error resulting from
  a reference to an undefined compilation variable in a DEFINE
  directive, even though the directive appeared in the false
  branch of a conditional compilation directive.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler was updated to ensure that irrelevant errors
  discovrered in the false branch of a conditional compilation
  directive are not processed.
  

Temporary fix
