I've had good luck with IBM's unsupported VVDSFIX tool, to delete an otherwise un-delete-able data set.

Re: Catalog Error - Can't delete dataset
Why don't you just zap the VTOC entry for this dataset to PS? The catalog structure is much simpler then and bypasses VVDS. You should be familiar with VTOP dump, zap and format-x DSCBs. Don't try it at home if you are not familiar with it! If you have CA-Disk, you can use a utility to this for you.
