PROGRAM 5: Error logging function for default error handling

CHARACTERISTICS: nnny

OPERATOR SCRIPT:
This program uses the system default error handler.  The usual means
of invoking PVT programs links in a user-defined error handler.  Be
sure to use the special mechanism provided (normally the "phfe" or
"phce" command) for invoking programs without the user-defined error
handler, since it overrides the system handler. Operator responds to
the questions on the screen.

DESIGN:

TEST: #SR 9
      "<Error logging> should write the specified error message on the
       error file."

<set error handling mode> to OFF
<error logging> for error #59 on function <unpost all structures>
set expected error to match <error logging>

pass/fail depending on (operator verifies error message in error file)
