APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
System terminates when an attempt is made to copy too much data
to a buffer while building a key. The length of the data move
goes off the end of the target segment, causing corruption to
the call stack of the task.

CORRECTION FOR APAR MA42754 :
-----------------------------
While constructing the key to go into an index for either an
insert or update into a physical file, a bad length was used
when moving variable length data into the key buffer which
overwrote stack space, resulting in the system crash.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR MA42754 :
--------------------------------
None.
