Something I came across in the WDSC RPG Const help. Take particular
notice of the last part of the last sentence, which is exactly what you
experienced.
"Attention!
Do not use this keyword on a prototype definition unless you are sure
that the parameter will not be changed by the called program or
procedure.
If the called program or procedure is compiled using a procedure
interface with the same prototype, you do not have to worry about this,
since the compiler will check this for you.
Although a CONST parameter cannot be changed by statements within the
procedure, the value may be changed as a result of statements outside of
the procedure, or by directly referencing a global variable."
