The issue was raised relating to a zLinux guest, but a

Good catch, Ian! I had forgotten about that fix.
So yeah: Brian? What version of Hercules are you using? Official 4.7? Or development 4.8?
You might want to try your large (ftp?) using QETH/OSA again, but using Herc 4.8 Development instead. It might work better due to the EQBS and SQBS instruction fixes. (And it would be a good confirmation test for us too!)
If you've never built Hercules for yourself before, use Bill Lewis's excellent Hercules Helper script. It makes building Hercules a breeze on both Linux or Windows.
