Bill,

$PROCLIB control cards in JES2 rather than JCL PROCxx statements was the
fix.  JES2 deals with them totally different than the DD statements.  As
well as JCLLIBs.  Both of them address this issue.  The only time this is a
concern is when shops still rely on PROCxx statements in JES2 startup JCL.

But the best is to get everything out of JES2 startup proc JCL and put in
JCLLIBs in all jobs where needed.  That way no one (except the sysprog) can
actually make life interesting for JES2.

Sounds like an opportunity to request to change the way this works in  JES2:

(1) add a user option at JES2 start-up time to bypass saving of TTRs  and 
always use a system service like BLDL to find the proc; (2) add an operator

command to refresh all saved TTRs; (3) other idea.  Recycling JES2 sounds
like 
massive overkill that might not always be possible.  Obviously the  JES2 
developers did this to make proclib reading happen faster in order to
support 
installations that run a huge number of jobs per hour.  One size  does not
fit all 
very often.  This is the same type of problem as that  associated with
Linklist 
processing.  I bet there are other  products/components with the same design

and the same problem waiting to  happen.
