I don't know how MVS and VM use disabled wait codes.  On Linux, the
(usually) only sitation where a disabled wait PSW is loaded is after
a kernel panic happened.  In that case, the PSW address is set to
the address of the kernel code that performed the panic () call;
if you have a kernel disassembly (or at least the System.map), you
can at least find out which panic it was if for some reason the
console output didn't make it through anymore ...

What 'common cases' are you thinking about?
