Did your test specify a member that has an alias and also copy the alias?  (Or 
specify an alias and pick up the member that has that alias?)  I see this in 
3.2.8 Copying Program Objects (COPYGRP Statement):

" If neither data set is a PDSE, the request is treated the as a COPY operation 
subject to the syntax requirements of COPYGRP."
