The libgcobol library has corrected the CBL_GET_PROGRAM_INFO function to align with its documented return values and buffer handling. Previously, the function did not consistently honor the specified return codes or exhibit the expected behavior for return-buf and return-buf-len parameters. This update ensures greater adherence to the function’s specification.
