Reading further, I see exceptions made for program object library members
and for RECFM=VBS.  I see no exception for allocated UNIX files, yet they
don't seem to work:

  IEC141I 013-BC,IGG0199G,proc1,STEP1,INOUTDD 275  
  IEA995I SYMPTOM DUMP OUTPUT 276                  
  SYSTEM COMPLETION CODE=013  REASON CODE=000000BC 

013-BC is another catch-all with 4 different explanations given.  Really, there
should be a separate reason code for each.  The programmer shouldn't be
required to guess.
