@Jim, not much faith in LE dumps, eh? <g>

I guess I will work on duplicating the problem with the LE dump disabled in
favor of SYSUDUMP. 

Meanwhile, here is LE's take on the issue: (zero editing other than where I
say "snip")

     Condition Information for  (DSA address 000236E0)
       CIB Address: 00024A30
       Current Condition:
         CEE3250C The system or user abend S202  R=00000000 was issued.
       Location:
         Program Unit:  Entry: DIRECTOR Statement:  Offset: +000000B6
       Machine State:
         ILC..... 0004    Interruption Code..... 0011
         PSW..... 070D1400 B1012472
<snip>
       ABEND code: 00202000 Reason code: 00000000

     Storage dump near condition, beginning at location: 31012462
       +000000 31012462  10000A6B 41000001 41106058 13110A01  07004510
C53C0000 00205810 10000A6B  |...,......-.........E..........,|

You can pretty well see that the offending instruction is an SVC 1.

I know that LE makes some funny decisions about what is and what is not
worth dumping, but I have trouble believing they "relocated" the ABEND from
the POST to the WAIT.

By the way, I don't know which POST and ECB was the problem. There are three
ECBs in the ECBLIST, and the POST might have been for either of two of the
three.

  Since I know of no way for WAIT to issue a 202 abend, I wouldn't believe
that without seeing it in a dump myself (a dump taken by z/OS with a system
trace - not some LE concoction of a dump).

  POST would abend the work unit which is doing the POST.
