or hammered because when it happens people are usually pretty freaked out
and getting it fixed (via recataloguing) is more the issue than determining
why it's happening.  But here, on the backside of the most recent call on
this issue, I see something interesting... the time stamps are changing on
selected items in the catdir, and specfiically on the items that have
historically manifested this problem!

Is this normal?  Does Universe change the ls -l time on the catdir items or
should I be on the lookout for some program doing this?


uv  does maintain a usage count in the catdir files,

that is shown as number of calls in the &MAP& file.

  A couple of
examples: $50BB, modified a second ago.  -EXPAND, modified right around the
same time.  Another ls -l and ... yep, the times are different.  I'd say it
could be a user, but the user associated with these items is me and I've
verified that I'm the only me on this box right now and I'm not doing it.

This particular application was home grown over the past 20 some years and
very little of it is catalogued.  Instead Most of it is run via RUN BP
.  Not sure why these catdir records are disappearing or getting horked,
but it's definitely upsetting the user.  Is this time stamp thing possibly a
clue or maybe only a red herring?
