Thanks a lot, Jim. I have forwarded this to the person owning that gtrace code. 
I believe this is an invocation problem, but without source code .....
(Also, in all of my debugging career, this was the first time I had to look 
into a dump in gtf code.)

Yes, I am taking the default as delivered by the ADCD system. Unfortunately, 
the control block that gets traced in that invocation is one that is needed for 
debugging the original problem. (R6 + change was pointing to that control 
block).
