Wow.  What a cerebral flatus I had.  You're right, of course.  Thanks.

Bill, 
According to the PoPS, a program running with a PSW key of "n" can read 
storage in key "m" (n != m) unless the storage is "fetch protected". Key 0 
storage is "nothing special" in regards to being "universally readable". 
PSW key 0 is special, of course. So a key 8 program can read the TIOT in 
key 1 (if indeed it is, I don't assert of my own knowledge) unless the TIOT 
storage were marked "fetch protected".
