--- Comment #5 from Bob Birchall <bob at calyx.net.au> ---
I tested this against 3.10.4, using a borrower with overdues and one with no
overdues, and with all three settings of the sys pref.
- When sys pref is set to 'All' both borrowers can return, as expected;
- when sys pref is set to 'Non-Blocked' the borrower with no overdues can
return but the borrower with fines cannot return, again as expected.
- When the sys pref is set to 'Don't Allow', neither borrower can return (as
expected) however there is an unexpected difference in the screen dialogue:
Case 1, borrower who is blocked receives the message 'Item cannot be checked
out' with option only of returning to the Account Summury;
Case 2, borrower who is not blocked receives the same message but has the
'Return Item' button displayed as well as the 'Return' button.  
When 'Return Item' is clicked the item in fact is not returned (respecting the
sys pref).  However the display error is likely to confuse users and should be
fixed in my opinion.
