While we can do it in cron by picking specific days, and then adding
logic to manage if this is the last Sunday....

Is there a logic flow structure in TSM scripting?  I've got an
installation with no documentation, so I've been using shell and dsmadmc
a lot... :)

The logic would work like this....

Run every Sunday
  Check Day_of_Month
  do *NOT* run if < 23.
  do run if > 25
  for 25, run if Month=4,6,9,11
  for 24, run if Month=1,3,5,7,8,10,12
  for 23, run if Month=2

Is there a facility to check this sort of thing?  We can substr the
current_timestamp, but can we store that to a "variable" and do
comparison testing and branches?

Use cron or the Windows scheduler service. There isn't any way to do it
with
the TSM scheduler.
