Actually, Alan, || is a self-escaping sequence.

You can execload something as | REXX and it will, in this example be
invoked with "literal foobar" as its argument string.

I never tested that combination, but it should be.

And I'm not sure where it sees a null stage there since I
thought "||" is not a stage separator.

It's not.  It's *two* stage separators with no data between them.
