The open() API has optional parameters, prototyped in C by "..." and 
prototyped in RPG by OPTIONS(*NOPASS).  Parameters are passed 
differently when the compiler knows that some of them are optional.  For 
RPG, if you don't code OPTIONS(*NOPASS) on the optional parameters, the 
API might interpret the optional parameters incorrectly even when they 
are passed.

I'm just wondering if the other mechanisms to call open() are not able 
to pass the optional parameters correctly.
