Yes. It is still possible to generate a REAL 0C5 (Addressing Exception) abend.
To do so, you must be in DAT OFF mode. z/OS has DAT OFF Services and until you
have a full 64-bit addressable real storage, an 0C5 can occur.
Back in 2005, I accidentally generated one in a DAT OFF service call.

Cheat -- use the ABEND macro. Yes, you can use it to generate system anend

PIC 5 is basically that a physical address doesn't exist, so I doubt you
can generate it DAT on.
