A list can be provided per LPP, when you receive the PTF tape.   Use
the "updatep command" with the following syntax (I'm not in front of
my RS/6000 now, so if the syntax isn't perfect, forgive me ...)

# updatep -A -d/dev/rmt0 bos.obj

The -A gives a list of APARs included on this tape.  The descriptions
aren't very verbose, but do give a one-line description of the apar
included.

-L.
