Patch Installation Instructions: 
--------------------------------
Refer to the Install.info file for instructions on using the
generic 'installpatch' and 'backoutpatch' scripts provided with
each patch.  Any other special or non-generic installation
instructions should be described below as special instructions.
Special Install Instructions: 
-----------------------------
1. Determine which patches (if any) have been applied to your SUNWlibC package.
        # showrev -p | grep libC 
   If no entries, or entries for earlier revisions of this patch (106803, 
      106540, 106539, or 106804), are displayed, skip to step 4.
   If you have an entry(s) for either patch 101242 or 102859, skip to step 2.
 
2. Remove the patched SUNWlibC package:
        # pkgrm SUNWlibC
 
3. Install the unpatched SUNWlibC package:
        # pkgadd -d <dir>/<patch-id>/pkg SUNWlibC
 
   where <dir> is the directory containing the patch and <patch-id>
   is the patch number.  <dir> must be a full path name.
 
   Example:
        # pkgadd -d /tmp/123456-01/pkg SUNWlibC
 
4. Patch the SUNWlibC package using the instructions from the
   Install.info file.
