Amen. I saw it first in code in 1976, with the eyecatcher preceded by a
one-byte length field for the eyecatcher. That one byte length is used by
the dump formatter to print the eyecatchers when formatting the save area
chain.
The oldest assembler I ever used was IFOX00. ISTR, it did not have
support for LOCTR but my memory could be faulty.
