  *                 programs with LP(64), that contain multiple  *
  *                 internal programs each with at least one     *

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF                       *
  ****************************************************************
  A key conflict happens during the identification of SORT/MERGE
  statements, leading the compiler to incorrectly link an
  INPUT/OUTPUT procedure to the wrong SORT/MERGE statement.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler issue is resolved by expanding the key to uniquely
  identify the SORT/MERGE statements.
