Mmmm... I see:
   z/OS Using REXX and z/OS UNIX System
   Services
   Version 2 Release 3
   Conventional MVS parameter list

   ... The length is set to the length of the data returned excluding the
    terminating null.
 
    If a keyword value is not returned, a null string is returned.

    Guideline: Because a null-terminated string is returned, in order to ensure 
that the
    data is returned, the parameter area must be large enough for the expected
    returned data plus the null character.

So should it be 45 instead of 44?
