Everything seems to come out as a U4087 (S0C1, S0C3, S0C7, etc).
Arguably that's what condition handlers are for. You would want to get control and belch up some more coherent diagnostic information - hopefully even some messages in the job log. That's (in general) much more useful than the usual symptom dump and abend code.
