we ran across this one with a 3rd party software:

Recent IBM i PTFs (such as SJ03017 on V7R4 and SJ03163 on V7R5) altered 
the List Objects (QUSLOBJ) API. These updates strictly enforce 
parameters in optional parameter group 2, which were previously ignored 
in certain calls. As a result, older programs coded with incorrect API 
calls may now experience runtime errors.
