You must have CMKRNL and SYSPRV (according to the documentation).  If
it happens to work with just SYSPRV, you may have found a bug.  Future
releases may reinstated the restriction.  For releases prior to 5.1,
it requires BOTH CMKRNL and SYSPRV.  5.1 may just require SYSPRV for
your installation, but it is documented as requiring both privs.  It
is best to follow the documenation.%
