That's odd, because according to Wikipedia, MVS 3.8j was released in 1981:

and the TPROT instruction exists plain as day in the Seventh Edition (March 1980) of IBM System/370 Principles of Operation, so it was definitely available when MVS 3.8j was released!
But then maybe they never got around to actually fixing IEAVEVAL to actually use it until some other later release?
In any case I guess the point is moot. It's obvious "our" version of MVS 3.8j isn't using it, which seems to be the problem.
