Having a LOGGER task abend when a job allocating a SYSVIEW logstream was cancelled.
A quick look at the operlog showed this:

Resolution
The reason for ABEND=S09C6,REASON=002601FF is that when the logger took ABEND 47B, the return code was 0.
That was fixed by IBM APAR OA58301 to return a non-zero return code, which would lead SYSVIEW, via fix SO10629, to not make another call to the logger. Thus, avoiding an abend condition such as the one been seen.
IBM confirms that this issue is resolved by IBM's OA58301.
