184	cds, rdc, pmac cannot compile source files residing within a source archive.	Gary Dixon	Eric Swenson	"Both pl1 and alm compilers permit the user to compile a source file while it resides as a component of a source archive.  The source input is identified using an archive pathname.  For example:

    pl1 bound_mbuild_.s.archive::mbuild.pl1 -ot -table -list

If other popular compilers also permitted this feature, it might help those writing tools to manage
compilations. 

Noteable exceptions are the compilers:  create_data_segment (cds); and reductions (rdc; and
   pl1_macro (pmac).

These do support support compiling a source referenced via archive pathname; the source must be
extracted from the archive to be compiled."	defect	new	minor		Tools
