Well, that's an interesting point you raise, Barry!

This APAR provides OS/390 MVS support for the new 128-bit extended TOD clock on

Simple solution:
1. Submitting system = prefix SSYS* (or RSYS*)
2. Converting system = prefix CSYS* (or ISYS*)
3. Executing system = prefix ESYS*
So, what you seem to be saying is run the converter three times?
NOT that simple.
Plus, you've tied up four characters out of 8 allowed.
