No, you need to come up with only the solution for the backlevel
version, then rely on upward compatibility.  (But it may be
suboptimal.)

It's a design blunder that STDPARM is mutex with EXEC PARM= rather
than being appended.  If it had been appended the programmer might
assign a few variables in the EXEC PARM= using JCL symbol values,
then exploit them in the script in STDPARM.
