Chuck,
*WAY BACK* in the 70's I used to "punch out" the macro definitions
and put them into a PDS (had to write a quick and dirty pgm to
create ./ add name= and insert them before each MACRO definitions.
Then I assembled DOS pgms on OS/360 (MFT if it matters) and took the
object decks and "linked" them on DOS it worked like a charm. The MFT
assembler output worked fine on DOS system. Mind you there were no
complicated programs with overlays & etc .... but it did work.

I don't know if what you are attempting to do will work.
There are most likely VCONs to VSE transients that aren't going to
be resolved in z/OS.
Also, I believe there are structures like COMREG that won't
translate to OS because they aren't there, at least not by name and
not by location though they may be present in concept.
Also, doesn't VSE have some RLD entries that are partition offset
based?
I think the best suggestion is to grab the source to a disassembler
from the CBT, assemble and link it in the VSE world and execute it
there. Then, take the generated source and move it to z/OS and try
assembling it there.
If the program has disk file definitions, ie the VSE counterpart to
a DCB, the disassembler may not know what to do with them.
Good luck.

Couple things to check. BLKSIZE less than 3200. Nulls off. FF is
like EOL for editor with Nulls on. HLASM also has disassembler but
have never used on conversion attempts.

I'll revise the loading procedure to see if I "garbled" the RLD
