David,
Can you elaborate on the affect to Web Services in 6.0.3? Thanks, Roger A.

Only for web services and import/export - and for import/export this probably isn't an issue in 5.1.2 because the library is used to for XML processing of deployable apps - a feature which was added in 6.0.1.

Simply put, it would be as much work as taking AR System 6.3 and backporting it to 5.1.2. The affected libraries cannot patched and thus the code would have to be updated to use the newer libraries. Even were BMC to do this (which would take months to accomplish), the effort required by the customer to apply this "patch" would be equivalent to upgrading to AR System 6.3. Thus, it does not make sense to go down this path - either for customers or for BMC - especially recognizing the minimal impact caused by this issue within AR System 6.0.1 and previous versions.
