You thought IEFBR14 was bad? Try GNU's /bin/tru:
I would absolutely love to see someone code the TEXT-UNITS for a
DYNALLOC without using coded example and see how many days it would
take them
The simplest code for a Br14 is
LA R15,0
BR 14
It is a 2 instruction program that is as simple as it gets
I think that LA is actually a XR 15,15 or a SR 15,15.
Note that the zero'ing of 15 was one of the 2 mentioned APARs. The
original version did not clear 15 before returning via 14. I forget
what the other APAR was for.

I have not been following this thread -- seemed like IBMMAIN
navel-gazing -- but FWIW IEFBR14 seems to be documented in the JCL U/G.
I like to maintain the distinction between a Guide and a Reference.
The Guide describes techniques; the Reference specifies functions.
Are you saying that it isn't documented if it is only documented in
a User's Guide?
If that is the case, you'll never be able to use DYNALLOC.
