Oh, my. If that were done, I'd be forced to update SCRT via a change request. 
Around here, that is a royal pain. It is much simplier, for me, to replace the 
JCL with a change notification (JCL changes are easier to make than installing 
a z/OS related PTF). If you want, you should be able to just link the given 
object code into a load library using IEWL with your own JCL. Or even make up 
your own USERMOD, if you really need to.
