The mh_identical MOVE routine in the Cobol compiler has been fixed to properly handle DEBUG-XXX registers, which are children of DEBUG-ITEM. This resolves an issue where these registers were not being processed correctly. Additionally, trailing whitespace is eliminated in mh_binary_to_packed, and the attributes of DEBUG-CONTENTS are corrected in symbol_table_init.
