John, Long ago and far away I think I had something similar to your issue. After a lot of research (we kept all SMPE output) IBM was surprised and a little pissed as we had hardcopy proof. IIRC it was an issue with with IPO (yes that old) building process. My memory is stretched here but I think IBM quietly put out a replacement for most of the DLIB (that was the problem). It was I think about 30 or so modules. There was a note in the PMR about it but it is so long ago, frankly I have forgotten a lot of the specifics. It is worth following up on, IMO.
