Richard, It is working as it has for a long time.. The *MSG system Service description in the Programming Services manual describes just what you are seeing. See Chapter 17 of CP Programming Services
If a virtual machine has both a valid path to *MSG and a functioning secondary user, incoming messages (except for SMSGs, which are not console messages) are directed to the secondary user instead of the IUCV *MSG path to the primary user.
