Another stop-press bug?

ITS $ dire an1.log
%DIRECT-W-NOFILES, no files found
Not under the default name, either:
ITS $ dire sethost
%DIRECT-W-NOFILES, no files found
"SHOW DEVI /FILE" before and during shows only
[VMS$COMMON.SYSEXE]NET$CCR.EXE;1
Imagine my disappointment. An error message would have been better
than silent failure to perform.
Yes, I can use something like "SET HOST 0 /LOG" first, but that
affects only the future.
