Confirmed on MPE/iX 6.0:

  :listf dset46,2
  ACCOUNT=  BARRY       GROUP=  TESTDB

  FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                    SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX

  DSET46    PRIV   1024W  FB        2729       2729   1    21840  1 32


  :calc finfo('dset46','maxext')
  31, $1F, %37

I would suggest submitting a bug report at the ITRC -- that is, of course,
assuming you have the patience to work through that system!
