It's mostly automatic, but it does serve to define
about four hundred Rexx variables, which are unnecessary
for something as simple as this.  (By very recent
experiment.  Try "syscalls(on); say syscall_constants")

Some people insist on ending with SYSCALLS( "OFF" ),
but Bill Schoen, who ought to know, deprecates that
saying it may do more harm than good.
