Or perhaps, they want to write a COBOL monad...

Sounds like a challenge. Should be do-able in managed COBOL using delegates.
BTW, for fun, see this recent job for a Haskell expert in India - http://www.simplyhired.co.in/job-id/jh4gosrgqr/haskell-exper... -- turns out (I asked) they're developing tools to translate COBOL into more modern languages, since you can't hire COBOL programmers anymore.
Of course, the translation tool is in Haskell. :}
