If Dan, K, and I have the right handle on things, it would take 1-2 days 
to reproduce using the steps you're describing. I'm going to try to put 
together a slightly modified umn which will exhibit the bug in a few 
minutes. If that doesn't work, I'll take the steps you've described. As 
a side note, my ~/.updatemanager/notify/opensolaris-lastcheck exists and 
has a time of last friday in the afternoon, which is roughly when I 
turned UpdateManager on.
