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.
