EJECT statements before IDENTIFICATION DIVISION preventing syntax checking

Our code has program comments above the IDENTIFICATION DIVISION that also includes EJECT statements. This prevents syntax checking.

EJECT statements after IDENTIFICATION DIVISION work ok and have no affect on syntax checking.
