(Replying to self.) I spent some time last week trying to test this function. Could not even get it to run. Finally used Google to track down a Q&A that mentioned a symptom I was seeing. Q&A pointed to OA36158, the $MSPL enabling code. Duh. It was RECEIVEd here but never installed. I complained via SR that SIS search on '$MSPL' found three other APARs but not this one. IBM fixed it so that now SIS finds the fourth and most important APAR of all. Don't leave home without it.

That was our preferred method in the past. In this go-around we're short on time (no opportunity to migrate a software change), and R13 is already in place. I figured that $MSPL might actually be less risky here than bumping up against a known problem with an ancient process. Wanted broader confirmation. Thanks to all who replied. . .
