I think IBM turns off the Addressability-Is-Inserted-Into-Context bit in
the Create-Stream-File instruction template, and uses descent through Data
Space Index objects in Unicode to get to stream files, instead of through
RSLVSP.

Unblocked MATAUOBJ in a user state program coughs up pointers to stream
files.  MATSOBJ on these pointers shows me that stream files have no
associated spaces!
