from long ago and far away:
http://www.nsa.gov/research/selinux/list-archive/0409/8362.shtml

one of the "benefits" of cp67 and then vm370 was complete source as well
as tradition of doing maintenance in source (customer could rebuild
exact duplicate of production system from source).

there is folklore in the 80s about a request for something similar for
MVS ... the exact source corresponding to particular production system
... supposedly after spending millions on the investigation ... the
company decided that it wouldn't be practical.
