We have the ReservesMaxPickupDelay set to 7 and the
ExpireReservesMaxPickupDelay system parameter set to Don’t Allow.

Our workflow is that staff use the report generated by waitingreserves.pl to
identify titles to retrieve from the Reservations / holds awaiting pickup
shelf, and delete the reservation and return the items to the shelf, or have
that action trigger reservation satisfaction for the next person in the queue.  

Since our upgrade for 16.05 to 17.05 we are finding that when we run the
cancel_expired_holds.pl job at 01:00 daily, reservations marked as problem ones
are being deleted in addition to expired ones (expiration date set by user has
been reached, or the default 100 days has been reached). Koha 17.05 appears to
be disregarding the ExpireReservesMaxPickupDelay system parameter. 

(http://translate.koha-community.org/manual/master/en/html/17_cron_jobs.html#expiredholdscron).

We have suspended this cron job in the meantime, and will write a query to
identify expired ones we need to delete. Ideally we want problem reservations
NOT to be seen as expired ones.
