I found the following code in a paper:
PROC FCMP OUTLIB=FUNCSOL.FUNCTIONS.CONVERSIONS;
FUNCTION LB2KG(LB);
KG = LB / 2.2;
RETURN(KG);
ENDSUB;
RUN;
I tried running in SAS 9.1.3 and got the following warnings
WARNING: No CMP or C functions found in library FUNCSOL.FUNCTIONS
and
WARNING: Failed to save function LB2KG to catalog funcsol.functions
you do not get an error on the proc fcmp itself, something is working.

It says something is wrong when saving to the catalog.
