Which says, in part:
             
     * Through an assembler- or compiler-produced END statement
       of an input object module if one is present.  ...
                                                                               
   The entry point assigned must be defined as an external name
   within the resulting program object or load module. ...

If this is true, the restriction is new with Binder.  I remember
thoroughly frustrating a colleague many years ago by generating
a compiler-produced END statement which identified an entry
point which was not an external name.  Worked OK with Linkage
Editor until he tried to re-link to reblock.

(IIRC, the operand on the SYSLIN END record is ESDID + offset.)
