There was a very recent discussion here (3/31/2022) with a response from
Peter Relson of IBM that clarified the separation of LINKAUTH=LNKLST,
PROGxx, and JOBLIB/STEPLIB. My understanding from that and prior
discussions is that the short answer is "No, as long as the module is
actually fetched via the linklist". The somewhat more complete answer is
* APF authorization of fetches from the linklist with LINKAUTH=LNKLST
are unaffected by PROGxx
* APF authorization of fetches from JOBLIB/STEPLIB are controlled by
PROGxx and unaffected by LNKAUTH=LNKLST or whether the dataset in
JOBLIB/STEPLIB is also part of linklist.
So if there are legit reasons why you might want to override the usual
search order and reference a linklist library in a JOBLIB or STEPLIB
concatenation, you might need to include it in a PROGxx, but that has no
effect on fetches from that dataset via the linklist.

Datasets in our linklist are APF authorized via LINKAUTH=LNKLST. Is there any
differences on how program fetch behaves if a dataset in the linklist is also
APF authorized in PROGxx as far as modules being fetched from the linklist? The
Ministry of Silly Questions thanks you in advance for your reply!
