   Interesting point.  Are patches available for anonymous ftp from any
site on the net, or do I have to obtain them from the vendor (in my case,
SUN)?  It would (probably) be much easier and faster to ftp patches, 
especially since this would allow me to check for the existance of
(new) patches for bugs that I am not yet aware of!  (Gee, it sure would
be nice to fix a bug *before* I find it!)

   Anyone from Lucid listening?
