Curioser still, I now know of two VM/SP rel 5 systems, one which had
WORDWRAP before they turned off the big switch & retired it, and one
which does not have it.  With IBM a lot of things are possible, but
having a new VM/SP release without updating XEDIT causes my eyes to
widen more than slightly.  Am I overlooking something?
