This is a function offered by the MVS Binder and the MVS Loader in some way. It
is being used by LE, which is the component loading Cobol, well MVS, load
modules.
In previous versions of Cobol, the Working Storage section was part of the load
module, and it was easier to locate Working Storage variables in dump. Now,
they are disconnected from the code section, thus it all looks different in a
dump. This is how I became aware of "deferred load" sections.
I'm a curious MVS guy, and I'm curious to understand this. I'm looking at this
from a pure MVS point of view.
