Well, I have created a userid (cleverly named ROMVSNO) with no OMVS segment and 
I am getting waaaaay into the program before terminating due to other things I 
have not yet set up. More C library functions than I care to count, and TCP/IP 
sendto().

Am I confused? This userid has no OMVS segment, right? Why am I having so much 
success? What am I missing?
