  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • For an active COBOL v5+ module in the "Storage for Active
    Routines" section of the dump, the items formatted prior to "DSA
    frame for {module}" may incorrectly use the stack frame and/or
    writable static area (WSA) from a prior module.
    
    The most evidently wrong data is for "Contents of base locators
    for LINKAGE SECTION are:" and the subsequent "LINKAGE SECTION
    for {module}" data pointed to by the individual BLL cells.
