  64-bit.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• Provide support in the Enterprise PL/I 64-bit library routine
  for various new microseconds built-in functions.
  
  The MICROSECS built-in function returns a FIXED BINARY(63) value
  that is the number of microseconds, in Lilian format,
  corresponding to the current timestamp.
  
  The MICROSECSTODATE built-in function returns a nonvarying
  character string containing the date in the date/time
  pattern that corresponds to the input microseconds, based on
  Lilian format.
  
  The UTCMICROSECS built-in function returns a FIXED BINARY(63)
  value that gives the current Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
  in microseconds in Lilian format.
