  ****************************************************************
  The COBOL CANCEL code sets the control block flags for the
  program to "CANCEL in progress", but did not reset it before
  issuing the IGZ0032S message. When a subsequent attempt is made
  to clean up or CANCEL the same program, a new condition is
  raised since the program is in an unexpected state.
  

Problem conclusion

• The COBOL library routine has been changed to reset the
  "CANCEL in progress" flag before issuing the IGZ0032S message.
