Lionel,

Does the storage not dropped create a problem? Or is this just a thing you
want cleaned up?

I used to know that.  Perhaps I saw it in the (CMS?) Ref.  That has gotten
thicker and harder to search.  I see no information about storage in:
<https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.5.0?topic=instructions-drop>

And I once considered writing an asynchronous ATTACH and find no
description of whether REXX storage compaction is likely to move
storage addressed by IRXEXCOM.  I use SYSCALL SPAWN instead.
