I ran across an old message, and since the thread went a bit astray
and apparently unresolved, I chose to post a resolution as a new

To get the same record format level identifier as the TABLE
referenced in the SELECT, for the given CREATE TABLE, requires an
additional SQL clause to be appended to the CREATE TABLE:
INCLUDING DEFAULTS
Note: Alternate syntax is INCLUDING COLUMN DEFAULTS
Note: The default is EXCLUDING COLUMN DEFAULTS
If the referenced table had an Identity column, there is a similar
clause, similarly with alternate syntax, and also /excluding/ as default:
INCLUDING IDENTITY
