HIPER is never carried forward to a superseding PTF. HIPER requests that you 
immediately install a PTF and ignore your PTF installation process. You apply 
this PTF to your production systems far sooner than typical. The superseding 
PTF fixes more than just the HIPER situation and possibly requires other PTF's. 
A HIPER PTF must change as little code as possible. Often, there will be 2 
PTF's caused by a HIPER situation. The HIPER PTF eliminates the HIPER situation 
but may not be the complete solution. The second PTF fixes what the HIPER did 
not fix.
