Not that it is broken or anything like that, no? Wouldn't that depend on what meaning was assigned to 'that bit' after the PTF was applied? If indeed it is undocumented or in an unsupported area, it could easily be defined as a bit that determines whether that job is to be ended immediately or anything IBM chooses. One reason for having such structures hidden is so that changes can be made without negative external consequences. Conceivably, IBM could have had V5R2 plans for a couple of years to redefine that structure (however unlikely).
