I had the same problem and the flag didn't work or so I thought further investigation showed that I entered the parameter incorrectly and the program didn't complain. It just went on it's merry way and complained about locked files. After looking again at the option I finally entered it correctly and it worked.

When I did a search, I found people complained that the MQPINUSEOK flag didn't work, so I didn't bother. This was a new (or almost new) box with a fresh install of MQ. Therefore, I want to make sure it was put to the current CSD level. Backout is not a requirement. If needed, I would have just deleted and re-installed.
