*Output* *marked* as RENT? I don't know. Perhaps for some of the "new-fangled" 
object formats?

CICS prohibits the use of most z/OS programming services. It just does. I 
*think* you can technically get away with many of them. GETMAIN might be one 
you can get away with. I think at worst you might confuse CICS's storage 
management which "thinks" it "knows" how much memory is available.

Is there any way that compiler output can be marked RENT?  I thought that 
option was available only on load modules.

If I knew CICS at all, would it be obvious to me why you don't simply GETMAIN 
(whatever) a 72-byte save area?
