From the current (V1R5) HLASM Language Reference manual, SC26-4940-04:
COMPAT(NOSYSLIST), abbreviation CPAT(NOSYSL)
instructs the assembler not to treat sublists in SETC symbols as character
strings, when passed to a macro definition in an operand of a macro
instruction.
Seymour's contrary view noted, this thread nevertheless belongs on and
should be moved to the assembler list.
