I think the grumpiness and sarcasm might be a bit over the top. The error
does have roots going back to the middle ages, that when combined with
modern functionality, causes some odd results. Anyway it's something that
doesn't happen very often. If IBM thinks it's worthwhile, they'll improve
it.
That should have been cross-posted to ASSEMBLER-LIST and MVS-OE.

Easy to reproduce. Create an assembler input deck with a line longer than 80
bytes; it can even be a single line:
*
x
(that x is in column 81)
Put it in a USS directory as, say, bad.asm. Now cd to that directory in a sh
