Try it from a console. A *real* console. TSO command processors often write messages with trailing whitespace -- normally unseen by the user. If you don't strip it off, those lines will be wrapped on an 80-column console.

I issued a LISTD command using your REXX and got:

 SYS1.PARMLIB
 --RECFM-LRECL-BLKSIZE-DSORG
   FB    80    6160    PO                                             +

Mine got:

 SYS1.PARMLIB
 --RECFM-LRECL-BLKSIZE-DSORG
