GIB made the odd decision to pass a reverse on this hand, even holding decent (as in, should've been game-forcing) values, leaving me to play a 4-2 fit rather than a 5-3 fit. Does not compute.

Yes. A con. Note that your partner was related to the opponents. Hope you did not lose too much money.

It's a bug. Fixed in next update. I'm not sure if there was previous report based on similar situation as well these days.
However, in the particular case GIB will not pass, but bid 3♣ - !Fourth suit forcing -- 4+ ♠; 8-11 HCP; forcing to 3N
3♦ is also forcing, but it doesn't have 4 cards so it will use 4SF.
