It is shipped with CMS to the 190 disk. If you can't find it, then
that probably means it still is shipped as file mode 1 file, so you
don't see it normally...  It looks like VMSES build list specifically
makes it like that, which clearly is wrong for these files. We could
eventually argue the 193 might be a suitable place as well.

For some time, with every new z/VM release I had someone in Endicott
promise me to take a PITS entry to get it fixed. Maybe it works better
if you make them take an APAR against it.
And I think they can do away with filemode one entirely since these
few FSTs really don't make a difference and it avoids all the trouble
with the GENDIRT stuff.
