The rationale of FIN is to avoid pre-announcing features, so
nothing is ever "FIN for" a particular release.

It's not keyworded for msgASMA309W, but for ASMA309W:

  APAR Identifier ...... OA12634      Last Changed ........ 05/07/14
  WHEN USING THE HLASM FLAG(PAGE0) COMPILER OPTION, RACF MACROS
  GENERATE ASMA309W MESSAGES AND ASSEMBLY GETS RC=4 AS WELL.
 
  Symptom ...... IN INCORROUT         Status ........... OPEN
  Component Name 5752 RACF            Special Notice
 
  Status Detail: ASSIGNMENT - APAR has been assigned to a
                              programmer.

Since the FIN latency now is 24 months (even if it were the
old 18 months) there's little chance it will make 1.8.  In
fact, with a couple months' delay, it could miss the window
for FIN in 1.9.  Perhaps it will be corrective service, instead.
How many RACF macros are there?
