A number of folks offered advice and helped me find the patches I was
looking for. There seems to be some confusion about what actually
constitutes Sun "support". I haven't had much luck lately... ;)
Digest follows, and many thanks to all,

Since its only 2 weeks unitl the new Solaris is out it may be better to upgrade your system and fix lots of problems in one fell swoop.

Last I checked, Sun doesn't provide free patches to the Internet, except for bugs with security implications. You have to buy software support from Sun.

Yes. Just call Sun at (800) USA-4SUN and they will send them to you. You don't need to have a maintenance contract.
