The trouble with this is when your library has more than one copy of the same
title, but because they have different ISBNs they were cataloged under separate
records. Pulling one of the two [different] copies of that title has only a 50%
chance of fulfilling the hold in your report.

We use a custom PHP script which pulls from Koha's holdsqueue table and does a
"limit 1" query for barcode for each item in the holds list. It has worked well
for us. I don't know whether a similar method would work well as a built-in
report.
