I'm game.  I have a few minutes...  

Job:
//DPC088IF JOB (DPC088,JDG),'IEFBR14',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X
//    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14                                          
//SYSPRINT  DD SYSOUT=*                                         
//SYSOUT    DD SYSOUT=*                                         
//TEST      DD DSN=DPC088.TEST.GDG(0),DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),  
//         SPACE=(55,55),AVGREC=M,RECFM=FB,LRECL=132            

Result:
IEF286I DPC088IF TEST - DISP FIELD INCOMPATIBLE WITH DSNAME   
IEF272I DPC088IF - STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED.

Has anybody tried executing that example, or something similar?
