  SUMMARY:
  During parsing a comment block for the data set separation
  profile syntax, the logic used the wrong flag and did not
  detect the comment block end, which caused the next keyword not
  to be recognized.
  Additionally, before building an error message for the data set
  separation profile processing, the message pointer is not
  initialized, which caused the reason code 12011, and ABEND0F4
  occurred.
