The only difference I can see between ALLOC and bpxwdyn is that the former requires a TSO environment. That's usually not much of a burden, but if you want to run under IRXJCL, you'd have to go with bpxwdyn. I also like that it supports system-generated ddname that it will return, although that doesn't seem needed here.
