(j3.2006) does move_alloc violate restrictions in 12.5.2.13?

This IS about argument association.  If it helps, consider the analogies 
between the two calls


CALL FOO (A, A)

vs.

CALL MOVE_ALLOC (FROM, TO)


The fact is there is only ONE actual argument survives the call.  BUT, 
during the execution of MOVE_ALLOC, it has to be associated with both FROM 
and TO.
