Bob:

The 200 MHz O2 upgrades arrived today.

SGI wants users to shut their eyes, and click install on the patches
disk that comes with it.  I ran inst and compared patches installed on
my O2 against the patches in the dist/6.3_O2 directory on that patches
disk.

There were 4 patches on the disk that were not on my machine:

2383 IRISconsole
2422 libmp
2575 libblas for MIPS 7.2 compilers
2680 DCE/DFS

I KNOW we don't need 2680, since it's only valid if DCE/DFS is installed.
I presume the others were recommended patches that you judged
inappropriate to our system.

Would you double check?
