DspPgmRef locks objects at *SHRNUP; need to change wait time

["Dan Bale" <dbale@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've got a program cross-reference utility that uses DSPPGMREF to produce an
outfile.  This morning, the utility hung for a few minutes due to the fact that
certain applications in a given library were in use and locked with *EXCLRD.
DSPPGMREF apparently needs to lock objects it interrogates at *SHRNUP (as
opposed to *SHRRD, which I think would have avoided the problem).

The job log shows that the command waits up to 30 seconds per object.  Not too
bad if there's only a few objects, but tends to tie up the job queue if there's
a lot of them.  How can I change the time DSPPGMREF waits for an object from 30
seconds to, say 1 second, in this utility ONLY?  I.e., I don't want to change
anything on the program objects.  Would I have more options if I switched to
using an API?
