>FSVO "reentrant". Actually, being in the LPA usually implies "not self modifying", that is the program will not attempt to modify its own storage. But, at least in the past, there were sneaky ways around this. Yep - the NOPROT parameter in IEALPAxx for the modules in MLPA
Got burned by this when I was "nout but a nipper" as the shop I was at had one of these abominations of a load module.

Actually, being in the LPA usually implies "not self modifying", that is the program will not attempt to modify its own storage. But, at least in the past, there were sneaky ways around this.
