Robert and all:
To set the record straight, I looked at the object code, which is:
1BFF07FE, or
SR 15,15
BR 14
I believe the second APAR was the addition of equates for R14 and R15
and to change the code to
SR R15,R15
BR R14
because the former failed to meet programming standards.

I would absolutely love to see someone code the TEXT-UNITS for a
DYNALLOC without using coded example and see how many days it would
take them
The simplest code for a Br14 is
LA R15,0
BR 14
It is a 2 instruction program that is as simple as it gets
I think that LA is actually a XR 15,15 or a SR 15,15.
Note that the zero'ing of 15 was one of the 2 mentioned APARs. The
original version did not clear 15 before returning via 14. I forget
what the other APAR was for.

I have not been following this thread -- seemed like IBMMAIN
navel-gazing -- but FWIW IEFBR14 seems to be documented in the JCL
U/G.
I like to maintain the distinction between a Guide and a Reference.
The Guide describes techniques; the Reference specifies functions.
Are you saying that it isn't documented if it is only documented in a
User's Guide?
If that is the case, you'll never be able to use DYNALLOC.
