Thanks for the link I found it useful and interesting. As to why I used
syscall('off'), the doc I worked from said it was not usually necessary, rather
than not recommended, so it seemed tidier to do so. I'll certainly remove it.
Incidentally the problem only manifested when I switched from _BPX_SHAREAS=NO
to _BPX_SHAREAS=MUST/REUSE/YES. From the description it sounds like REUSE is
what I should use.

Why do you use SYSCALLS("OFF")? It's not recommended:

I do not recommend using sycalls 'OFF'. It may clean up more than you want
yet not everything from syscalls 'ON'.
