The problem occurs when an X Toolkit library routine such as XtAppSetSelectionTimeout() or XtAppAddTimeOut() is called with a very large timeout value. This can cause the internal representation of time values to overflow their data types leading to incorrect timeout entries and application failures such as segmentation faults. The Patch Kit Installation Instructions and the Patch Summary and Release Notes documents provide patch kit installation and removal instructions and a summary of each patch. Please read these documents prior to installing patches on your system. INSTALLATION NOTES: 1) Install this kit with the dupatch utility that is included in the patch kit. You may need to baseline your system if you have manually changed system files on your system. The dupatch utility provides the baselining capability. 2) The patch in this ERP kit does not have any file intersections with any other ERP available at this time for this product version. 3) This ERP kit will NOT install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) which have file intersections with this ERP kit. Contact your normal Service Provider for assistance if the installation of this ERP kit is blocked by any of your installed CSPs. INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES: You must have installed HP Tru64 UNIX 5.1B PK3 (BL24) prior to installing this Early Release Patch Kit.
