Hi Jan,
Connie was the one that did the work, but she's busy right at the moment.  She 
went through and found several packages with the problem occured.  She said she 
got them all except for gcc.  I know she has put them in our rolling area so 
the next release they will go out with it.  I *think* we have also put them in 
the errata area's, replacing those that were already out.  But I'll have to let 
her comment on that.

Troy
