I was not aware of z/XDC's capabilities.  That's good to know.  Thanks, Dave.

FWIW: z/XDC has *explicit* support for testing SRB code that is actually 
running within SRB environments. This support includes the ability to step 
through SRBs instruction by instruction, ... and includes the ability to debug 
locked code!

Yes, there are some limitations, but they are less that what you might think, 
and within those limitations, z/XDC can be unexpectedly useful!
