The source code to patch is quite large, and there was not enough space for
it on a 9-diskette set, even when everything was compressed.  Andy wanted to
keep the distribution to 9 diskettes for price reasons (the more disks, the
more bucks).  You can get patch from several Internet sites, and there is a
patch (I believe with binary) specifically for Minix on vm1.nodak.edu aka
ndsuvm1 on Bitnet.  See the Minix Information Sheet for details on
requesting the files.
