If Chris is going to look into this code here is some more concerns of mine.
Currently the renewstatus is only cheking whether the number of renewals is 
reached to a certain limit and if there is any reserves on the item and 
nothing else. This script is also used in canbeookbeissued as well. There it 
does the correct thing of returning 0 or 1.
My belief is that when renewing a book all the checks that issuing a book is 
done should be re-done. The patron may have overdues -fines etc. which the 
librarian should take into consideration.
I personally would prefer to leave this script as it is and instead use the 
canbookbeissued script here again probably with a $renew flag. This way all 
the checks will be re-done and we can stop the script asking "This item is 
issued to this user. Renew Yes/No?". The flag can set this to yes and a proper 
renewal is accomplished. We are currently being able to renew items on members 
we would not be able to issue without confirmation.
