In answer to your question,

z/VSE recognized the "problem" and introduced the new "CEE5PRML" callable
service, see:

  http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/fl2pre05/3.17 

IBM has indicated at previous SHARE meetings that the requirement

  SSLNGC0313586:  Enhance CEE3PRM Callable Service  

will me "met" in a "timely" manner - even though they have NOT yet marked it
as "accepted". (It is still in status "RC".)  I would expect it to be
"resolved" in a semi-compatible way with the current VSE solution.
