System Update 3.5.2 patches the following three traps:
sysTrapSysResSemaphoreReserve
sysTrapSysResSemaphoreRelease
sysTrapExgDBRead
For more info try:
http://www.palm.com/support/downloads/update352.html
And/or search the knowledgebase.
Admittedly, our web page doesn't really go into any detail about what the update
actually fixes... :oS But I can tell you that only a couple of our licensees were
affected by the semaphore bug, and only a handful of customers and developers were
affected by the exchange manager bug, though the problems themselves were definitely
serious enough to warrant a fix. I do very strongly recommend that all customers
everywhere always be sure to have the very latest System Update installed on their
device.
