Important Note:  

This patch fixes the Sun OS 4.1 problems described in the patch.008
notice posted to info-andrew 12-Dec-90.  Only Sun OS 4.1 users need to
apply the patch at this time.  However, all users will need to apply it
before attempting to apply subsequent patches.  (Don't worry ... we'll
remind you when we send out the next patch.)

Note to All Users of the Resolver Library: 

There is a potential configuration problem you may encounter, depending
on what resolver library you are using and how your version of X was
compiled.  If ATK is compiled with a different resolver library or with
different resolver include files than your X11 was, things are going to
fail.  You must make sure that Andrew and X11 are compiled with the same
resolver library and include files. 

General Patch Info: 

The latest patch, number 9, is available for your immediate action in
the file contrib/R4fixes/andrew/patch.009 or patch.009.Z compressed on
expo.lcs.mit.edu (IP address 18.30.0.212).  You can also retrieve the
file from host emsworth.andrew.cmu.edu (IP address 128.2.30.62).  This
patch is available as file patches/patch.009 or patch.009.Z compressed. 
A copy of the entire Andrew tree (compressed tar form) is also available
as in the top level ftp directory as andrew.009.tar.Z.  

This patch includes diffs for 44 source files.  The RCS logs of the
changed files are included at the top of the patch.009 file. 

If you don't have ftp access, mail retrieval is available.  For more
information, send requests to andrew-service@andrew.cmu.edu.  

As you probably know, you should apply these patches with Larry Wall's
patch program, which has been distributed on the X.V11R3 tape as well as
on the X.V11R4 tape and via netnews.  As the patches are all made from
context diffs, you may specify the '-c' option to patch.  You will also need
the '-p' option to allow patch to understand the pathnames in the patch
file.  Thus, you should do this:
	(retrieve contrib/R4fixes/andrew/patch.009)
	cd (directory with andrew distribution)
		(thus, ./overhead and ./atk exist)
	patch -c -p < ../patch.009

Good luck,
