One of our programmers asked me to help with a problem involving outq
overrides.  PGM_A prompts for invoice number, issues an OVRPRTF via QCMDEXC,
then calles PGM_B which prints the invoice.  All works as expected UNLESS
the user profile that calls PGM_A  has a default OUTQ defined.  In this
case, the override does not seems to "stick", and the output is created in
the wrong outq.  

Some specifics:
V4R4
ILE (PGM_A Actgrp(*New), PGM_B Actgrp(*Caller))
Print file >> QPRINT program described (O spec)
Override being issued: OVRPRTF FILE(QPRINT) OUTQ(ARINVPRT)

We got around the problem by creating QPRINTINV which targets the static
outq that is needed.  No override needed now.  That's fine, but I'd like to
know why an OVRPRTF failed for jobs having a default OUTQ.  It does not seem
to be related to OVRSCOPE issues, since it works correctly when the job's
OUTQ is *DEV.  Any ideas?
