 Name       : ANCHTAB
 Description: Anchor Table
 DSECT      : ANCHSECT
 Function   : ANCHSECT defines the VSE anchor table. This
              DSECT is used by DMSDOS when a CDLOAD (SVC 65)
              is issued, and the specified phase is not found
              in either the CMSVSAM or CMSAMS segment. In
              this case, the specified phase is loaded either
              from a CMS DOSLIB or a VSE core image library,
              and the name, load point, entry point and
              length in bytes of the phase are saved in an
              available slot in the anchor table. ANCHSECT is
              called by the ANCHTAB macro.
