Nice examples! But you might be missing 
//STDENV   DD  *  
_BPX_SHAREAS=MUST

If you are using the DDs allocated in the job.

Two recent examples from my employer's z/OS V2.2 system (sanitized):

//AWKSPLIT EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,MEMLIMIT=256M
//STDENV   DD  *                          
SCRIPT=TSOUSER.TEST.EXEC(AWKSPLIT)        
INPUT=TSOUSER.TEST.CSV                    
//STDPARM  DD  *                          
SH echo awk -f "//'$SCRIPT'" "//'$INPUT'" 
   ;                                      
   awk -f "//'$SCRIPT'" "//'$INPUT'"      
//STDOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*                   
//STDERR   DD  SYSOUT=*                   
//STDIN    DD  DUMMY                      
//                                        

//FLTOFIX  EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,                                        
// PARM='PGM /bin/awk -f //DD:SCRIPT //DD:XTDIN'                     
//STDOUT    DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),                               
//             DSN=TSOUSER.OUTPUT.FILE,        
//             UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5,5),RLSE),                     
//             DSORG=PS,RECFM=VB,LRECL=84,BLKSIZE=0                 
//STDERR   DD  SYSOUT=*                                              
//SCRIPT   DD  *                                                     
{ printf "%9s %#015.11f %#015.11f %#015.11f\n", $1, $2, $3, $4 }     
//XTDIN    DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=TSOUSER.INPUT.FILE
//STDIN    DD  DUMMY                                                 
//*

In which z/OS release did JCL gain support for regexen?  I've long wished for 
even the most rudimentary string processing in JCL.
