Many thanks to everyone who took a moment to help look into this.

After Terry posted some sample code that indicated the DCBBLKSI
*was* set after an OPEN (and a collected "phew" from me) - I started
digging into it more.

It looks like this was, in fact, a bug in the OPEN EXIT - it was incorrectly overwriting the DCBBLKSI field. That's been corrected and the code is happilly allocating
a buffer of the maximum block size for the file (happy little code... I
just love anthropomorphized bits.)
