Ok, that's enough, it is the "very same" compiler ;-(
Thanks for the test, Rene'.

The problem may only be in the way the binaries
issue system calls to MVS.

It works under MVT, it doesn't under MVS, with XFEF, well it
fails every time PHASE6A (module IKFCBL6A) is involved.

Now, do we have enough information and sources to understand
where it fails?
