The essential statement above is not false either, although I referred to the 
DINZ*
routines where I meant to refer to the DINV* routines. These load 
platform-specific
versions of the routines ^%ZOSV and %ZOSV1, while the DINZ* routines load 
platform
specific code into global ^%ZOSF. The omission of routines for GT.M from both 
of these
sets of routines is essentially a single problem of Fileman depending on 
platform specific
features and leaving out the necessary initialization.

Since the code to initialize the platform specific features is included 
elsewhere in
VistA, this is a (minor) problem only for those of us who want to run Fileman 
in an
environment that may be incompatible with some other parts of VistA.
