Yep, I think I coded any possible value for REGION,
even values I didn't know, suggested from the IBM
manual GC28-6399-2 (by the way, an excellent manual,
it even review JCL/JES2 topics and a complete
reference for datasets definition in COBOL).

Always the same error, as soon as XREF is requested.

It looks like the compiler, when time to create
the symbol table comes, needs to allocate memory
for performing the task, but there is not any
large enough contiguos area available in the job
region.

Mmm ... this is a COBOL compiler designed for MVT,
isn't it?

Is possible GETMAIN calls are different between
MVS and MVT?

Anyone used this compiler under MVT in our days?
