Hi Phil,
It's looks JCL-like, but, it's used to determine DDDEF names, inputs to
utility programs and parms for e.g. Program Binder.
For example:
//LKED EXEC PGM=IEWL,PARM='RENT,AC=1'
//SYSLMOD DD DSN=LINKLIB (There is no such dataset, but, there is a
DDDEF or JCL Statement)
Regards,
David

Ok, that was what I guessed you were hinting at.
So it's sorta not JCL, despite looking like it (and presumably getting
re-injected into the stream by SMP/E at the appropriate time, at which point it
sorta is JCL).
Any suggestions to solve the problem?

Therefore you don't get SMP doing symbol substitution for JCLIN the way that
you get in JCL.
