Charles, Have you looked at the ALL31(OFF) LE option?
I don't know how it works for C/C++ but for Cobol this option instructs LE to allocate the COBOL EXTERNAL data in storage below the line. Which means if a main program defines an EXTERNAL variable it will be below the line AND accessible by the name from any subroutine that also defines it as EXTERNAL. This is a rather old trick and so the most current LE may have other options to suit your needs.
