There's also the effect of the ++MOD CSECT(...) option to consider.
If CSECT() is absent, the default is the name of the MOD element.
ISPF SMP/E panels might show this.

Can you create a disposable instance of your CSI (Shmuel insists
that includes PDSes)?  In that do a ++DELETE of your load module
and re-install the JCLIN to create it and note what happens.

Are there any REPLACE commands in the listed SYSLIN?  These are a consequence
of the ++LMOD CSECT() option.

Against 1.12?  John's last idea is more promising.
