Since I got called out on the above, I ran some tests to refresh my memory.

The following code:

         EXTRN FOO
         LARL  R15,FOO

assembles cleanly with the GOFF option specified, but without GOFF the following warning message is issued:

** ASMA215W Relative Immediate external relocation in NOGOFF object text - FOO

Regardless of whether GOFF is specified on the assembly, the output object module can be used to create a load module in a PDS.

Revised: "It's been possible to achieve the same result with LARL for many years (a warning message will be issued if GOFF is not specified in the HLASM parameters)."
