Yes, rexx.cat is not necessarily in the place ooRexx looks for it and therefore
sometimes is not
able to locate it. ooRexx should look in the same directory where the rexx
binary is located as
rexx.cat accompanies it, if it does not find it (as a fallback solution).
Because of this my installation of BSF4ooRexx with ooRexx included sets the
environment variable
"NLSPATH" to read:
NLSPATH=$NLSPATH:/usr/local/bin/rexx.cat
Because of this in my case executing "time()" will yield the proper error
message on MacOSX:
time()
ksh: 14:17:30: not found
I thought that I have had a bug opened against ooRexx, but just saw that I
closed it in 2012.

That is strange, as BSF4ooRexx for MacOSX would set NLSPATH as described above.
Maybe try the following:
export NLSPATH=$NLSPATH:/usr/local/bin/rexx.cat
and rerun your test in that shell.
---
Also, on MacOSX the hash-bang line in the Rexx scripts need to change from
"#!/usr/bin/rexx" to
"#!/usr/local/bin/rexx" in order to function. In this context it would also be
interesting to learn
whether on Linux installing (creating symbolic links) should be done to
"/usr/local/*" as well or to
keep it to "/usr/*".
