You are at risk in using the "address" of the JFCB in the TIOT. It might be an 
address and it might not. It IS however always a "SWA virtual address token." 
Pass it to the SWAREQ macro (probably documented in Authorized Macros but does 
not require authorization) and voila! Get back an address you can depend on.

Subject: JFCB PREFIX QUESTION

Hello; 
     I was curious what the 16 bytes in front of the JFCB is.  I extract the 3 
byte ADDRESS of the JFCB
from the TIOT, and, then need to step past a 16 byte area in front of the 
actual JFCB.  What is contained in the 16 byte area?  
I have tried to make some sense of it.
