Ah, no need: I RTFM:
4.8.3 "SMP/E V3R5.0 for z/OS V1R10.0 Commands"
__________________________________________________________________________________
4.8.3 Determine elements for all associated SYSMODs
...
SMP/E creates a FROMDS operand on the element MCS to specify the data set
name
associated with the element's DISTLIB value. SMP/E extracts the data set
name from the
DDDEF entry for the DISTLIB ddname. If a DDDEF entry is not found in the
set-to zone
for the DISTLIB ddname, then only the ddname is specified on the FROMDS
operand.
... so the built MCS contains references to the local DLIBs. As
such, it seems tied to the originating site; not exportable to other
site; and subject to peculiar corruption if subsequent maintenance
is ACCEPTed in the originating CSI.
