Here again we have the common misunderstanding
of the RENT compiler option:
Compiling with the NORENT option does not mean that
the modules are not reentrant. The modules can be linked
RENT, REUS anyway, if they are naturally reentrant (as it was
the case with earlier releases of PL/1 compilers, when there
was no compiler option RENT).
The compiler option RENT means, that modules are made
artificially reentrant, even if they change their static data.
If you don't change your static data (that is, all working data
is automatic), your modules are naturally reentrant, and you don't
need the compiler option RENT ... and its performance penalties.
Kind regards

I also would be surprised that NORENT is a good idea in CICS.
I know that one of the main advantages of the changes in COBOL
starting with VS COBOL V1.4 was the ability to have REENTRANT modules
in CICS.
