Since I posted these specifics in August, I feel obligated to mention one I 
didn't
at the time:

PM40604 / UK69141 - for z/OS 1.12 and 1.13 - ABENDS0C4 PIC11 IN DFSAOS60 

Even though I have mentioned these specific PTFs I know about, I strongly advise
anyone that is considering going down this (unsupported) path apply ALL 
available
IMS V9 maintenance that you don't already have applied instead of picking and 
choosing.
