Retry and ++ZAP:
If AMASPZAP causes a SE37 ABEND, an attempt to recover by COMPRESS
and retry is largely futile.
Only the second and subsequent compresses. The first one may find
"gas"/free-space in the library more than the size of the load module
in question - IOW: After the initial compress you will have recovered
enough room to save a new copy of the load module. OTOH: You can just
go PDSE and never need to compress since all of the free space is
available and there is no "gas" and also room for expansion.
