Nobody involved.  Program X adopts QSECOFR authority.

Don't know ... not sure what difference that makes.  Program X should be
operating with QSECOFR authority.

No, handle for user B was retrieved immediately prior to invoking QWTSETP.

This issue was encountered on a customers system ... and we tested the
function on our system without a problem.  I suspect it's the fact that the
profile was in the QSECOFR group.
