Because you have warning on and the way 3.4 works.  Basically,
catalog management checks for alter first because that gives you
authority to display more (like catalog passwords). Not an issue
for ISPF 3.4, but it causes those "bogus" messages. 

Bottom line:  Turn of warning for catalogs.

BTW, the archives are your friend.  I'm sure this has been covered
on more than one occasion.
