Either the documentation for "dial(3c)" is incorrect or the code for this routine is wrong. Specifically, the "dial()" documentation describes its parameter as: CALL *call; whereas, the code uses the following declaration: CALL call; In keeping with the precedence of parameter passing by many other routines, the calling convention described in the documentation should be the implementation of choice.
