The -b option differs in the 10.0.x versions, and versions 11 of the Embedded SQL/C and Embedded COBOL precompiler:
For 11.1 and later versions of cpre and cobpre, the norebind attribute applies to all fetch statements of a given cursor whose declaration has been precompiled with the -b option.
For the 10.0.x versions of cpre and cobpre, the norebind attribute applies to all fetch statements in each Embedded SQL source file precompiled with -b, regardless of where the cursors were declared.
