I sure wish DUMMY didn't truncate the concatenation, but
were treated as an empty directory (DSORG=PO), or data set
(DSORG=PS), allowing subsequent catenands to be searched
or read.

Or that there were an alternative keword (DD EMPTY) with that
behavior.  Or even that there were a standard SYS1.EMPTY.PO
and SYS1.EMPTY.PS.

(For PS one can use PATH=/./dev/null.  But it's ugly.)
