Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Japanese messages in the listing, between message number 7000
  to 7999, may contain invalid message text because the message
  was split between two lines without correctly appending and
  prepending the DBCS Shift-In and Shift-Out character
  respectively, as appropriate.
  
  The compiler was updated to append and prepend the DBCS
  Shift-In and Shift-Out character appropriately for those
  messages.
