Yes, this is a known mismatch.  The upgrade redefined/renamed three
symbols:  .#SYSTEM; .#ABORT; and .#GETENV.  The change was done to
improve ANSI compliance.  Since you are still getting the error, I
suspect that you missed a library somewhere.  To find it, I recommend
linking with the 'ld' flag "-bloadmap:<filename>", where <filename>
is the name of a file of your choice.  After doing the link, this
file will indicate what object module is still calling the symbols.
Good luck.
