IEBGENER fails (as it should) with the same SYSUT1:

 IEC141I 013-34,IGG0199G,user,$STCTSO1,SYSUT1
 IRX0250E System abend code 013, reason code 00000052.

...  And here I'm dissatisfied.  M&C gives eight possible explanations for 
RC=34.
That's bad.  Each reason should have a distinct reason code rather than 
requiring
the programmer to investigate each of the eight.

And here, none of the eight seems to apply.  If someone can't supply what I fail
to understand, I may go to SR.

And damn Rexx for showing RC in decimal when all the reference material show 
hex!

Postel's law was a bad idea.
