I assume I would do the patch, Tatsuo would test it, and it would then
be applied. I work for Tatsuo now, so he doesn't have to do the work.
I can do it for him. :-)

SRA has clients running SunOS, so even though there aren't people on the
mailing list, there are users.

I can do the work and get it tested. I just want to know how people
want it fixed. Seeing as no one is saying anything, I will go ahead
with my best guess, have Tatsuo test it, and post the patch for review.
