For the VERY "odd" world of TRUNC/NOTRUNC behavior, see the IBM mainframe
examples at:
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IGY3PG30/2.4.53.1
and
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IGY3PG30/2.4.53.2
NOTE:
IBM has 3 options for TRUNC - BIN, OPT, and STD
while
Micro Focus only has "TRUNC" and "NOTRUNC"
