    The stack was not set up correctly when the COBOL library was
    preparing to call the sort routine to do the actual sorting,
    which subsequently caused the ABEND.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The COBOL runtime library has been updated to set up the stack
    correctly when calling the sort routine.
