Unfortunately I have, when IBM packaged a PTF with a LPA module that was not marked RENT.

I had noticed it during maintenance preparation and asked IBM support. Their response was that it would not be a problem as all modules in LPA were treated a reentrant. IBM PE'd the PTF when we reported the IPL wait state.
