So to finish my thought from the original response I gave you, everything you need for
your "real" environment will be in the buildmcs package. Don't make any
changes to your in-progress dddefs to point to anything new or different, unless you get
a NODDDEF error, which would indicate that you would need to allocate a new empty
dataset(s)(patterned after what IBM sent you), and add a DDDEF entry for it.
As John Eells mentioned you could still have some issues with modules at
differing levels of maintenance. But lets get your buildmcs done, received,
and an applycheck run and see where to go next...

SMP/E APPLY processing will enforce the installation of requisites. You
won't get mismatched modules that don't work together. What you will
get unless you do something about it is one maintenance "level" for most
of the system and a different one for the feature. This will just be a
bit strange. It's not a problem, per se, but it could cause some
confusion later on, and having an even set of selection criteria for the
maintenance level for the whole system has a smaller potential for later
surprises.
