PL/I for Windows

Rectify code generation for statements like
a = a * b;
and
a = a/b;
where a and b are COMPLEX,
in which the real part of the result is computed incorrectly.

The imaginary part is stored directly in the result field
instead of in a temporary.
That action overwrites the imaginary part before the computation of the real part (from both operands)
has been carried out.
