RE: Stream file lock, but not by any particular job.

That seems to be the problem.

I've updated web feedback that IBM explain this when they say
<snip>
In-Use Indicator The object is currently in-use. This indicator will be
set to one of the following values:
0 QP0L_OBJECT_NOT_IN_USE: The object is not in use and all of the
reference type fields returned are 0.
1 QP0L_OBJECT_IN_USE: The object is in use. At least one of the
reference type fields is greater than 0. This condition may occur even if
the Reference Count field's value is 0.
</snip>

I've also submitted a Request for Design Change that the api return the
jobs locking that object without forcing them to check every individual
stream file within that directory and it's subdirectories.
