       | COBOL land isn't being able to execute snippets embedded in
       | another language. It's a) migrating the COBOL to something else
       | before all the devs who know it retire/die and b) getting stuff
       | on to commodity hardware or other solutions as things like
       | Solaris aren't supported anymore.
