Exactly what we do where we can. Including SMF exits (how many "wrong IEFACTRT" threads have their been on IBM-MAIN). We have a mixture of both, but our "usermods library" is well documented as to which ones are true SMP/E usermods and which ones live in a "SYSLIB LPALIB" concatenated ahead of SYS1.LPALIB.
