APAR PM88048 contains this information: 

"IGZ0264S  There was an attempt to run both OS/VS COBOL and Enterprise COBOL V5 
programs in the same enclave.
"Explanation:  OS/VS COBOL programs can not be run in the same enclave where 
Enterprise COBOL V5 programs are also running.
"Programmer Response:  Compile the OS/VS COBOL program with an Enterprise COBOL 
compiler.
"System Action:  The application is terminated."

So, in some cases, there is a de facto requirement to migrate old code.

There is no requirement to "migrate all of that" or even any of that.
(Aside: Why is this particular hyperbole so popular? Just stop, please.) 
When/if you want or need to recompile one particular, specific program (or 
subset of programs), sure, use the current compiler. If you want to recompile 
every single line of COBOL source code in your enterprise whenever IBM 
introduces a new release of its COBOL compiler, Gentoo-style, you can if you 
wish. You certainly don't have to.
