I'm astonished.
The SYSCALL environment can be used by any REXX program with syscall
commands, whether it runs from TSO/E or the z/OS shells (where the
environment is automatically initialized).
(I'd add IRXJCL to that list.)
Are you running under z/OS, but perhaps in a captive environment with
limitations on host environments?
