>>> I've never seen one, that I can remember, occur when executing data 

Way back when, I discovered this code in an IGZ (COBOL module)
BALR 14,15
DC CL6'PATCH'
etc.

According to IBM a return wasn't possible (it did), the DC is a nasty XC
This was done inside CICS and did sufficent damage to cause the CICS region to 
crash

I raised an APAR
