Can't install ADVFS/UFS patches from kit 7 on 4.0B

I tried installing patch kit 7 on my 4.0B system, which recently started
crashing with the string "m_copym length". I figured install the patch
first, then call Digital. The system already had kit 4 or 5 installed.

During the check phase, patch 537 claimed it wouldn't be installed
because it could not determine the origin of /sys/BINARY/advfs.mod.
Another patch failed due to a similar error regarding ufs.mod (548 I
think). I currently have patch 231 (previous AdvFS consolidated patch)
installed, so advfs.mod should have come from there...

Any ideas why it thinks it's different? Any workarounds?
