On systems that run an unmodified SAF (as supplied by IBM), all address spaces 
that start during NIP are initially TRUSTED and none has a user ID, because 
there are no security services available to assign anything else that early in 
the system's life. They also only have limited services available for their 
use. Later, after the security services become available during MSI, some of 
those early address spaces may choose to transition into full-service address 
spaces, and if so they would acquire proper security identities, and possibly 
lose their TRUSTED status.
