Well through a comedy of errors, my original copy of the Second Edition got
destroyed. A new copy was purchased to replace it, and this copy was from
the fifth printing of the Second Edition. My new copy had all the minor
corrections included in it that had been posted earlier by Dennis Ritchie.

I have had my new copy of the Second Edition for several months now, I
imagine that most all of the copies being sold today have the corrections
in them.
