I haven't worried about file record lengths (or pack maps, for that
matter) since we converted from the S/360/20/5 to the S/3/15-- which
knew how to span records of strange length across sector boundaries.

True - but I still cringe when I see some new programmer create a new file
with a record length like 257 !  ;-)
