Perhaps an INCLUDE member with SET statements could get you static system 
symbols into the JCL. I toyed with the idea of creating a Rexx task that 
executed at IPL time that would write the current system's symbols into a 
member (with SET statements) in a system specific PROCLIB. I never did 
automate such a process, but I did have a member with 'hard-coded' variables 
in it:

(INCLUDED member contents)
//SYSNAME   SET SYSNAME=SYSA
//SYSHLQ     SET SYSHLQ=SYSP
etc...
