As I described at the ISPF-L list, this didn't work.  And that's because ISPF 
uses an userid.ISPnnnnn.SPFTEMPn.WORK file just for file tailoring into a 
preallocated ISPFILE ddname. 

But it worked with preallocating the ISPWRKn and/or ISPCTLn files.  
(The created JCL was > 173000 lines, most of them control cards to utilities.)
