What precision do you need?  Minute?  Second?  msec?  µsec?
What does CICS supply?

It isn't documented whether STCKCONV applies the leap second correction
in CVTLSO (I still need to submit an RCF.)  If STCKCONV ignores CVTLSO
(as I suspect) it currently returns a value about a half minute too large.
Does that meet your requirement?

What time zone?  GMT, LOCAL, or other?  Current time or converting
logged values?  Do you need uniqueness absent with STCKF?

Has TIME macro worse overhead or better?
