The REXX exec can be invoked from a UNIX shell, gil, and run an APF-authorized 
program, as both exec() and execmvs() and the spawn services support invoking 
APF-authorized programs and z/OS UNIX provides ways to invoke those services. 
That will also work from IRXJCL, as far as I know.

Why is that a "severe" constraint, even if it were true?
