Worse (unless things have changed in that last couple years).
You don't run int the additional extent problem; you just run out of 
space that can't be reclaimed.  When I ran into this, every LPAR with 
the library in the LINKLIST had it allocated and open by LLA and 
XCFAS.  I assume it was the OPEN that kept the space from being 
reclaimed.

A royal pain!
