Of course, it could be that:
 
   1) on our machine, DISK is a valid class name
      (but it isn't)
 
   2) Gavin could be anticipating the results of a yet-to-be-announced-but-
      still-hoped-for fix to MPE/iX that allows "DISK" to be a synonym for
      "DISC" (right after "SYS" is allowed to be a synonym for
      "MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET")
:)
