Z/OS 1.3; server 4.2.2.12 I saw mangled command text when I was retrieving
(i.e. f7 or up arrow) prior commands. I started testing a 5.1.5.4 client two
weeks ago and have not seen a mangled command since.

Tom, I have the same setup as you except the server is at 4.2.3.1.
I saw the same thing, mangled commands;  I am glad someone else
saw it.  I thought of opening a pmr, but didn't - it is too random and
not really a big deal.
