I have been running into this too now with JL inventory, I see it on aa.com & expertflyer, but no, can't book it. So I called the AA EP line agent, "the inventory is listed as available, but JAL will not confirm.". He said he would report it, but I'm not holding my breath for JAL to undo whatever they did to AA flyers for 2013.
