Perhaps Bob can expound on why.  But in "seeking first to understand" 
perhaps he wanted a list of all subprocedures to either:
a)  see if there are some out there that does what he wants to do, and 
let's put them in a service program.
b)  Put a subprocedure in a common service program that may already be in 
use by a program that has an internal subprocedure and he wants to make 
sure it doesn't conflict.  You know, pick a safe name.

I don't understand why you want to do this. DSPPGM/DSPSRVPGM/APIs only
list the exported procedures from a program, that's true.  But, there's no
chance for a procedure name to conflict unless it's exported!   So, why do
you need to know about the ones that aren't exported?

I doubt it.   Remember, those names are just to make life easier for
humans... a procedure is normally just an address in memory.   I don't
really see why the program object would still contain the names after a
compile?  Unless they're exported, of course, in which case other programs
have a need to get their addresses after the program has already been
compiled.

The only other idea I can think of is the debugger APIs.  Perhaps they
have a way to get the procedure names that are used during debug sessions,
or maybe the names used for error messages...
