[open-cobol-list] Some more errors

1) Following produces "invalid _expression_" :
        EVALUATE Blah-blah
        WHEN > "aa"

        or even :
        WHEN >= "aa"

2) Following produces "Invalid MOVE"
        03  MYITEM PIC 9(10).

        MOVE SPACES to MYITEM (4,2)

        This is legal according to ansi85, I quote from "Reference Modification" :
        "If the data item referenced by data-name-1 is described as numeric,
        numeric edited, alphabetic or alphanumeric edited, it is operated upon
        for purposes of reference modification as if it were redefined as an
        alphanumeric data item of the same size as the data item referenced by
        data-name-1".

3) Can you add "SYSLST" alongside SYSIN and SYSOUT ? It is accepted by mainframe.

4) Still don't agree with the last redefines change :-)
