Amazing how many programmers actually DO think "system abend" == "system 
problem". But, being Friday, it is somewhat nicer that an old DOS message I 
remember: "JOB TERMINATED DUE TO PROGRAM REQUEST" or something similar. The 
programmer insisted that the program did not contain any code (which he brought 
with him into my office) which requested that it be terminated! It was the 
equivalent of an S0C4 of some sort, as I vaguely recall.
