It does not, with about 10 characters to spare.

I copied and pasted the JCL (I changed job and sysout classes).
I got no such error.  It went to execution with the expected
failure:

-sh:0+ cd /u/maint/ca/pax/                                                      
cd: /u/maint/ca/pax/: EDC5129I No such file or directory.                       
-sh:0+ pax -rvf productpaxfile.pax.Z                                            
pax: productpaxfile.pax.Z: EDC5129I No such file or directory.
