Jim, I suspect it would get fixed if it ever broke; lucky for us it does not break. Here is the listfile stats for the FCOPY package that I am using:

I only used the files listed above. I do not have access to any other level of FCOPY.

My guess is that FCOPY is probably still so widely used inside IBM that it would be fixed if a new CMS broke something. Right?
