PH59282: CEEDUMP local variables inaccessible "Reason: internal error (50)" only for subroutines for AMODE64

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Under LP(64), when a CEEDUMP is produced, the COBOL debug
  runtime may fail to format local variables with
  
      Local Variables:
        COBOL variables were inaccessible.
        Reason: internal error (50).
  
  but only for subroutines due to an invalid WSA (writable static
  area). The main routine is fine.

  * RECOMMENDATION: Install the provided PTF.                    *
  ****************************************************************
  When a CEEDUMP is generated from an AMODE 64 program compiled
  with NOEXPORTALL, 'Local Variables' section for COBOL
  in CEEDUMP fails to generate debugging information.
  
  Instead, the following is found.
  Local Variables:
    COBOL variables were inaccessible.
    Reason: internal error (50).

Problem conclusion

• COBOL Runtime has been improved to handle CEEDUMP for
  AMODE 64 COBOL programs compiled with NOEXPORTALL.
