because if we take an unexpected pgm interrupt:
* the interrupt handler will write stuff on the console using SCLP
* it will wait for the busy flag to be cleared before doing so
* thus it will hang.

this would be solved by adding special logic to the pgm interrupt
handler (as we have discussed in your previous email)
