In z/VM we have a special translation table called POSIX that is used to get the 0x15->0x0a translation for files in the BFS. Code page 1047->819 translations assume that the EBCDIC string uses EBCDIC LF (or CRLF) as the delimiter, not NL. I haven't a clue as to how you ended up with 0x15s converted to 0x25s, except to note that 0x25 is EBCDIC LF.
