Ah ok.  I do see that in the assembly listing below.  Guess it's safer to use Y 
to avoid complications down the road.
 
0026F 00                                                                     
00270 0008                         195 APARMLST DC    Y(APARMEND-APARMVAL)

The byte count at the front of the parm must be halfword aligned.  AL2 will
not align it.  Y will.

:>: than parens, and of course it failed.
