The DIRMAINT-RACF "connector" has changed significantly in z/VM 5.4.  It 
is referenced in the Summary of Changes in the DIRMAINT Admin Guide. 
Though no longer required, I would have expected your exits to continue to 
work.  Please open a PMR to get clarification.

As of z/VM 5.4, you can dispense with the exits and just say "USE_RACF= 
YES" in the config file.
