Problem conclusion

• ***************************************************************
  * FIX DESCRIPTION:     1.  Corrected a logic error in the     *
  *                      HourGlass AGGPIND program that caused  *
  *                      the reported ABENDU2025 error.         *
  *                      2.  Added a "STCKSYNC=N" customization *
  *                      setting to the AGG.SAGGSAMP(AGGCUSTM)  *
  *                      SAMPLIB member.  This provides a sample*
  *                      of how to code the STCKSYNC= parameter,*
  *                      and also documents that the default    *
  *                      setting is "STCKSYNC=N".               *
  *                                                             *
