One our operators was playing with DCL CALL in the following .com
$ CALL TEST
        .
        .
        .
$ SUBROUTINE TEST:
        .
        .
$ ENDSUBROUTINE

  The label, of course, should be the first thing on that line,
but you would thing that DCL would handle it a little more robustly.
It gives you a dump and kicks you out on your ear!

  A one-liner, $CALL TEST, will do the same thing.  We have SPRed it.
