  The PTFs for OA24573 have been marked PE, and APAR OA25292 has been 
opened. 

  IEEMB838 was moved above 16MB in PLPA in z/OS 1.9, and a glue 
routine was created.  Problems created by that change (for example,
SMFEWTM issued in 24-bit addressing mode returns in 31-bit 
addressing mode) caused the creation of OA24573.  Unfortunately,
I neglected to consider the effect of ISV intercepts while fixing
OA24573, despite having seen that the interface was intercepted
in the customer's dump.  A senior moment, I suppose (not sure how
many of those I am allowed before my coding license gets revoked).
