As I thought I remembered, the "CBL" string is a language directive and as
such is actually coded "*CBL".  Ergo a locate for / CBL / isn't going to
find any.  Further, the "*" may occur as early as record position 7, and
having the *CBL string start in 8 wouldn't be uncommon.  You might be
dropping all occurrences as comments with the NLOCATE stage before you ever
get to checking for CBL.
