Thanks to all who responded and informed me about the patch.  I want
to thank Jim, also, for mentioning the other fixes available for 2.3.1.

When I asked SCO for a list (while ordering the slow printer patch), they
responded that a list of available fixes was only provided to current
tech support contract holders.  If I understand this correctly, I can *order*
the patch and have it sent UPS 2-day (at no charge) -- but I can't get a list
of the available patches? Hmmm... [isn't that sort-of like having permission
to open() and read() a file, but not the directory it resides in? :-)]
