10 Function: returns a pointer to the specified bit in the segment
11 referenced by the input pointer.

14 Syntax:
15 declare set_bit_offset_ entry (ptr, fixed bin(24)) returns (ptr)
16      reducible;
17 new_pointer_value = set_bit_offset_ (pointer_value, bit_offset);

20 Arguments:
21 pointer_value
22    identifies the segment in which the desired bit resides.  (Input)
23 bit_offset
24    is the offset (relative to the base of the segment) of the desired
25    bit.  (Input)
26 new_pointer_value
27    is the result of this operation.  (Output)
28 
29 
30 Notes:  The first bit in a segment has a bit offset of zero.
31 
32 If the value of bit_offset is negative or greater than 9,437,183 (the
33 offset of the last bit in a 256K word segment), the resulting value of
34 the call is not defined.
