I realize I should have been more explicit about what versions we
are running, etc., in talking about catatonia and its cure.

The problems have been observed on both 3.0, and 3.2 PILOT.  The
patch was installed, with positive effects, in both 3.0, and in 
3.2 PILOT.  I have been told the problem will be fixed in 3.2,
presumably after PILOT (which I don't know the name of).

So, if you have 3.0 or 3.2 PILOT, I would say the patch should be
installed.  If you have 3.2 after PILOT, check and let us know.

If someone out there has a path handy for some Sun person who would
(definitively) know, you might send this message their way, to get
an answer about 3.2 after PILOT.  Followup to this newsgroup, 
*por favor*.  (How about French?  Can you say it in French? :-)

cheers,
