But both TSS and ACF2 have compatibility modes, and you could find yourself in a situation where RACF *and* one of the other systems are running, and willing to accept calls using that security system's own interface, rather than SAF. In that case, ACF2 (and I *think* TSS) has its own macro for finding the security system's anchor, even if the RCVT says "RCVT".
