dtprintinfo buffer overflow?

Has anybody been able to verify that DU's dtprintinfo is not vulnerable
to the dtprintinfo buffer overflow that was distributed today for solaris?
As far as I've been able to test, it seems invulnerable but I was hoping
to get a second opinion. I'm doing this:

        /usr/dt/bin/printinfo -p `perl -e 'print "a" x 10000;'`

I'm getting no segfault, but I'm not sure this is a valid test.

Thanks,
-Saar
