I believe it’s completely possible for Problem State code to raise a
Program Interrupt with code 5 in z/Architecture but not under z/OS.In AR ASC
mode an ALET can identify a Real-space designator that results in access to
real storage . z/OS (along with VM, VSE etc.) requires authorization to use
such ALETs but one could fashion an OS or stand-alone utility that allowed
non-authorized access to real storage.

I created a better one, based on LURA, and tests fine. You don't get an
exotic PSW, but this will abend with a S0C5, with no risk to the system:
IEFS0C5 START 0
IEFS0C5 RMODE ANY
IEFS0C5 AMODE 64
MODESET MODE=SUP
LLIHH 2,X'DEAD'
LURA 1,2
BR 14
END
... it will not get to the BR 14, so it's superfluous.
APF authorization is required. IF there's a way to incur a S0C5 in problem
state, I don't know it.
