It was kept in the linkage editor because it was required to link the nucleus this way because IPL/NIP were designed to use the control info built in a scatter module and could load individual CSECTs where needed. Looking at a current nucleus (1.4), I see it still has the SCTR attribute. I don't think there are any XTLST entries for the nucleus. This was a long time ago, so my memory could certainly be wrong.
