On entry into these routines, OSSC(1 0) points to the parameter block passed to the OSWORD call in (Y X). OSSC must not be changed by the routines, as it is used by NWOSWD to preserve the values of X and Y through the revectored OSWORD call. OSSC(1 0) can be copied into SC(1 0) to avoid changing it.
