There is a difference between using TRSMAIN and using an old version
of TRSMAIN. The current version of TRSMAIN is AMATERSE.

Did you deliberately leave out the word "old"? It is always feasible
to use the name AMATERSE to pack and TRSMAIN to unpack; it is not
always feasible to use an old version of TRSMAIN to unpack.
