In retrospect, it was probably a _bad_ idea to make such a function
available on the external.  At the time (ca 1988/9), I was still pretty wet
behind the ears and was just doing what the team leader asked.  In
retrospect, the _right_ answer probably should have been a non-externalized
service/entry into command processing that the sysplex code just dropped the
command into, rather than setting a wacky bit on in the parameter list and
re-issuing SVC34.  Probably looks weird in system trace, too.
