I believe all CSECTs will start on a double-word boundary, but any USER defined external reference within a CSECT has no boundary requirement. Are you saying that DELINK0 forced a non-CSECT external reference to be double-word aligned? If so, that ain't no good.

Back in the sixties I ran into a problem with a module that had several CSECTs from a single assembly. DELINK0 appeared to work correctly, but the linker forced one of the names to a double-word boundary which it hadn't been before. I no longer recall the details, and haven't seen the problem since, and I long ago lost the output.
