You've been lucky so far. I've never used autocall nor library but SMP/e might 
not relink correctly depending upon your definitions. Typically object files 
are not retained in the SMP/e target. Instead, SMP/e typically does an include 
for the load module and issues a replace for object files to be replaced. For 
autocall, this logic might be something that Kurt can clarify.

If you can't figure out how to do this correctly, then look at an IBM example. 
For instance, you will see things like:

//SYSLMOD DD PATH='/path/name/irrelevant'
//*LIBRARYDD=UNIXLOAD

where UNIXLOAD is a DDDEF specifying the actual filename. How is this that 
won't fly when every sysprog is accustomed to using UCLIN DDDEF to create their 
maint environment?
