-** #1000: dialects without support of single byte binary data
-   will now generate at least 2 bytes of storage for COMP-5 elements; this
-   applies to all non-standard dialects but GnuCOBOL (default) and Micro Focus;
-   that changes the group length of records containing elements with less than

-   adjustments.
+** dialects without support for single-byte binary data will now generate at
+   least 2 bytes of storage for COMP-5 elements, where it previously generated
+   1 byte of storage; this applies to all non-standard dialects except GnuCOBOL
+   (default) and Micro Focus; this change adjusts the group length of records
+   containing elements with less than 3 digits, and also passes different sizes
+   via CALL, which may require program adjustments (either cater for the size
+   change or, if supported by the dialect, switch to USAGE BINARY-CHAR).
+   For details see Bug #1000
 
 ** -std=acu / -std=acu-strict now generate BINARY and COMP-5 with at least
-   2 bytes of storage; the comment for #NNN above applies; if you want
-   to still use the sizes used since GnuCOBOL 2.2 with those dialects:
-   add -fbinary-size=1-2-4-8 to your compile options
+   2 bytes of storage; see the notes for #1000 above; if you still want to
+   use the sizes that were previously generated by GnuCOBOL with those
+   dialects, then add -fbinary-size=1-2-4-8 to your compile options
