dupatch

I recently upgraded a system from Tru64 v4.0e to v4.0f and
immmediately installed the lates patch kit (#4). Now when I
try to run dupatch, it asks me to enter the path to the top of the
patch distribution, and after I do that it states:
dupatch:
        Patch tools need to be installed on your system. As the super-user
        (root), please invoke dupatch without command line arguments first.

Of course, I DID invoke dupatch without command line arguments.

I thought that the patch installation automatically installed the patch
tools and indeed if I try to do:
setld -l patch_tools
I get:
setld: All subsets on the kit are already installed

Any ideas of what I am doing wrong here?

Here's some additional info:
# setld -i | grep -i "patch tools"
OSFPAT00000000440 installed Patch Tools (- Required -)
OSFPAT00000001440 installed Patch Tools (- Required -)

As far as I can tell from the product map file, the subset
OSFPAT00000018440 is the only one in the patch_tools directory which
refers to V4.0F

Thanks,
