No, not quite.  Jumbo datasets consist of a chunk control header file in
MPE file space, and one or more chunk files in POSIX space.  The files also
have different PRIV filecodes.  So indeed, DBUTIL needs to understand this
in order to successfully purge the Jumbo dataset files.

Like Stan, I haven't committed all the feature-version matrix to memory and
unfortunately I don't have my notes here tonight to identify the DBUTIL
version that was Jumbo-aware.  However, it would have shipped with IMAGE on
5.0 systems.  So if you're on a 5.5, or 6.0 system, you shouldn't have any
problems.
