  Text:         Params in linkage section invalid for call-by-number
 
  Severity:     Recoverable
 
  Explanation:  When using Run-Time System call-by-number routines in
                16-bit environments, you can use parameters only in the
                first 64K of your Data Division, and they must not be in
                the Linkage Section.
 
  Resolution:   You must alter your source code so that parameters
                for Run-Time System call-by-name routines are in the
                first 64K of your Data Division and are not in the
                Linkage Section.
