When using symbionts the JobController wants to talk to your process
using the SMB$Send_To_Jobctl library call. What often happens is that
the process will run into an Exception that isn't handled this causes
your symbiont to have the output of the Exception to goto the Jobctl
which doesn't like it at all and frequently dies. It is also possible
that the symbiont does something like $Exit_S R0 - this has the smae
result if R0 is not odd...In general you have to be very careful that
you don't output inadvertanly or otherwise to Sys$Output...
