Followup:

Whatever I do as regards process or image privileges, SET WATCH never modifies
the PIO$GW_DFPROT cell so nothing happens. I just wrote a program that toggled
the low bit and XQP messages appeared, so the problem is in SET WATCH.

As it happens I have SETWATCH installed with CMEXEC.

It seems to be the correct version of the image, as loaded by VMS V5.4
installation.

So, any ideas?
