I doubt our D/R provider would have it available. Even if they did, our
policy is to try to avoid running unsupported software.
The question may have been rendered moot. I'm told now that our D/R
provider *might* be able to provide a G5/G6 machine for our upcoming
test. If not, then we'll just have to test with z/OS running in 64-bit
mode.
