PH57639: IGZ0153S RUNTIME ABEND AFTER APPLY OF UI92337 (V2R4) & UI92338 (V2R5) FOR AMODE64

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a program that uses exponentiation is compiled with
  ARITH(EXTEND) on a system where the June runtime PTF(s)
  UI92335/UI92337 (V2R4) & UI92336/UI92338 (V2R5) or beyond have
  been installed, and the June PTF(s) are not installed on the
  system where the program executes, the program may abend with
  error:
  IGZ0153S Program xxxxxxxx was compiled with a level of the
  compiler
          that requires service to be installed on z/OS or on the
  COBOL
          Runtime Component of the Language Environment, or both.
          Contact COBOL support for further assistance.
  This apar corrects that problem, eliminating the unpublished
  COBOL runtime PTF level requirement where programs execute.
