I read this rapidly. I'm trying to understand certain headaches "we" have
with certain products where it seems that you have to do a re-install to
put on fixes [and I do not necessarily mean here at IBM].
I did notice that the "Patch" document refers specifically to a POSIX
environment and "C" protocols as one would (at least me) expect to find in
a *nix world.
