Technically, this should be reported as a data error. But once when I was writing a library routine to process variable [spanned] records as a stream, I ignored the DCB spanned flag (DCBRECSB? IIRC) and always processed according to the flags in the SDW. (But I was conscientious enough to report an error if the sum of the RDWs exceeded the BDW or the BDW exceeded BLKSIZE).
