We probably don't, it's just what happens today and I didn't want to be
too disruptive (yet)  :)

I had looked at the (un)solicited bits at one point, and saw very few
unsolicited interrupts.  The ones that did show up didn't appear to
affect things in the way that would cause the problems I'm seeing.

As for is_final...  That POPS table states that for "status pending
[alone] after termination of HALT or CLEAR ... cpa is unpredictable",
which is what happens here.  In the example above, the cpa is the same
as the previous (successful) interrupt, and thus unrelated to the
current chain.  Perhaps is_final needs to check that the function
control in the interrupt is for a start?

I will keep pondering the bit-checking before I hit my end of day.  Have
a fine weekend!
