Hi, Folks

Should have guessed this. The following is something that I received
from being on the du-patch-digest list; however, I have focused on
getting the department upgraded to 4.0B, so I have not applied the
latest jumbo patch to the 3.2G boxes. If you wanna join the patch
list (I highly recommend it), send email to
Majordomo_at_data.service.digital.com with subscribe dunix-patches in the body.

To my embarassment, it looks like the following might just apply.
Thanks to Mervyn Weiss and Stephen Mulling.
