APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• It is not possible to send push options in an iOS Native
  application. The dictionary that collects the push options is
  never initialized and so any call to actually add push options
  does nothing.
  

Local fix

• Manually initialize the parameters dictionary like so:
  
  options.parameters = [NSMutableDictionary new];
