I think x37 for directory full condition only occurs when writing to a member 
as a result of an allocation with a member name.  The access method writes the 
data, then tries to STOW the member name.  If that fails, it issues a x37 
instead of a CLOSE.  

If an application is issuing its own STOW, it may choose to issue a message 
rather than contrive to emulate an access method.
