APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Unmatched quote caused the config parser to read past the
end-of-file causing the OS/390 and z/OS systems to abend with
a U4088 and the distributed systems to stop with a 1067.
..
On z/OS (zOS), after implementing the HTTP plugin the first
HTTP request may causes a S0C4 although we see message:
EJS3093I
WebSphere HTTP Plug-in for z/OS and OS/390 initialization went
OK :-)
The service_exit gets an 0c4,initialization is indicated to
be OK, but user may sees an internal error 500 (500).
..
The message from CEEDUMP:
CEE3204S The system detected a protection exception (System
Completion Code=0C4).
Location:
  Program Unit:  Entry: configIncReferenceCount
  Statement:     Offset: +0000005C

When the config parser reads past the EOF on plugin-cfg.xml,
 the Customer may see:
     ABEND=S000 U4088 REASON=00000063
     BPXP011I THREAD XXXXXXXXXXX, IN PROCESS XXXXXXXX, WAS
         TERMINATED DUE TO A PTHREAD QUIESCE OF TYPE 2.
The HTTP Server and the WebSphere Application Server will not
 finish initialization.
Problem conclusion
Changed the code of the config parser to recognize the EOF of
the plugin-cfg.xml file.
