Well, maybe it was the second thought that was no good here. What I fear is that fab$v_erl is part of a struct, not a preprocessor macro, and hence won't be defined (in the preprocessor sense) even under versions of VMS that support the functionality.
Net result: Could someone who has access to 7.3 check to see what the patch does? What I fear is that it will report FALSE for the erase bit even when it's set.
My problem is that I don't have access to VMS 7.3. So I'm kind of flying blind. My apologies if I have screwed anyone up.
