>M1B%RAYSSD asks about a C program which uses SYS$CRELNM to create a logical
>name.  The call returns SS$_NORMAL, but the logical "isn't there"

DCL creates supervisor mode logicals.  To duplicate that, you should use 
PSL$C_SUPER as the mode constant.

Defining the logical in user mode as you've done is OK, and is just like 

     DEFINE/USER  LogicalName  EquivalenceString 

It's there (and a subsequent $TRNLNM call should find it); but it's cleared
along with any other user mode logicals at image termination.
