That tells me there's probably something very funky with the
"problem" index. But what would cause an SQL INDEX to show up as
having no members, and to show up in DSPDBR on the based-on physical,
but not in the QDBLDBR API?

An SQL INDEX without a member is an effectively /unsupported/ condition, yet is not a fully prevented condition; i.e. the database allows and can effect the no-members condition in some non-SQL actions, but there may be side effects due to the expectations, i.e. some coded assumptions, that every [non-partitioned] SQL INDEX has its one member.

Note that DSPDBR defaults to "file" relations, not member relations; i.e. there are multiple capabilities of DSPDBR, to present different types of relationships. Similarly, what is presented for the List Database Relations (QDBLDBR) API output depends upon what are its inputs. Asking for member relations for *ALL members when there are zero members, for example, should produce no results.
