IDZ 14.1 Link jcl for Stub and Wrapper program

I am using the mock/stub feature in Zunits to test a cobol module. As part of the process IDZ generates a stub program and a wrapper program.The link-edit jcl that is generated in IDZ 14.1 for link-editing the stu and wrapper programs puts them in an in-correct order. It puts the wrapper program first in the include card and the stub program second. This causes the zunits runner job to abend with the following message "AZU1004S The test "ENTRY1" failed due to the unexpected error "IGZ0175S A dynamic call to CHKTXT failed because the entry point is a COBOL program compiled with the DLL compiler option." If I flipped the order of the include cards it works fine. I would like for IDZ to come up with the correct order automatically.

The order given below causes an error
//LINK.SYSLIN DD *
INCLUDE OBJ0000 ----wrapper
INCLUDE OBJ0001 ----stub
INCLUDE AZUTSTRX
/*

I wan it to be generated as
//LINK.SYSLIN DD *
INCLUDE OBJ0001 ----stub
INCLUDE OBJ0000 ----wrapper
INCLUDE AZUTSTRX
/*
