non-setld/SSRT patch tracking

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out a way to keep track of non-setld
patches from Compaq (SSRTs mainly) without repackaging the
original patch with a setld/pkgadd/rpm kit. We are on 4.0F.

Do I lose all my admin points by adding fake patch entries
in /usr/.smdb.? Is there a "standard" way to manage SSRTs?
I see there is a "Tru64 UNIX Patching" topic on the "Future
Best Practices" page of the Compaq site but nothing current.
I cant turn up much in the archives except for the recent(?)
thread on pkgadd for Tru64 and setld-specific questions.

Anyway, thanks for the input.
