    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR enhances REBIND processing in *
    *                      Object Compare and AUTOREBIND           *
    *                      processing in ADBTEP2.                  *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    A new Object Compare reporting option 'REBIND report' is added
    to enable the generation of a new 'PACKAGE REBIND REPORT'
    section with information about generated REBIND commands.
    
    New values are added for the 'Run REBIND' Compare option:
     - R (Recommended): REBIND will be generated for packages that
       will be invalidated by changes, packages that need to be
       rebound to apply ALTER changes (VALID='A' in SYSPACKAGE), and
       packages that depend on a table when a new index is added.
     - RP (Recommended package level): same as R, but REBIND is not
       generated for invalidated packages with statement-level
       dependencies.
     - MP (Mandatory package level): same as existing option M, but
       REBIND is not generated for invalidated packages with
       statement-level dependencies.
    
    New values are added for the 'AUTOREBIND' ADBTEP2 option:
     - M (Mandatory): only invalidated packages are automatically
       rebound (existing 'YES' option also rebinds VALID='A'
       packages).
     - MP (Mandatory package level): same as M, but invalidated
       packages with statement-level dependencies are not rebound.
     - YP (YES package level): same as YES, but invalidated packages
       with statement-level dependencies are not rebound.
     - AP (ALL package level): same as ALL, but invalidated packages
       with statement-level dependencies are not rebound.
