Ok, this is a WAG. No warranties express or implied... yada yada.

The GRS latch services do not provide any recovery or resource
management of their own. It is left up to the application, SO... you
could try doing things that would get you ownership of a latch and then
perhaps not get it freed. 

For example, in an ISPF session, open a PDSE member for edit. Then
cancel the address space while you're in edit mode. Maybe the latch<es>
get<s> freed, maybe not. But there's a decent chance the PDSE developers
covered that case, so if you have a monitor that allows you to abruptly
MEMTERM an address space (e.g. the MV/Resolve exit command) then you
could try the same experiment using that instead of using the cancel
command. That may bypass task level resource managers and trip the case
you're interested in testing.

Or not.
