And I am on z/OS 1.13 and have the problem there so it's a current issue.

I am z/OS V1.12.  I am using the F P'xxxx' ALL inside a member with your exact 
data.

If I use
F ALL p'DISP=SHR=DSN=$PDQ$ALC$UNVLIB$$UCMIN$'

It works

If I use
F ALL p'DISP=SHR=DSN=$PDQ$ALC$UNVLIB$$UCMIN)'


It works.  So not sure where the problem is.  I will test later with an ISPF 
macro.  So native F ALL P'xxxx' works.  Just need to check out the Macro side.
