The question was more directed at release-team as a whole than you; I
just happened to reply to your mail without reformating the headers.
As it happens, 108528-18 depends on 3 patches we don't have:
112396-02 (fgrep patch)
111111-03 (nawk patch)
108987-12 (patchadd and patchrm patch)
These patches all apparently deal with argument length limits in the
various utilities that could cause applying new patches to fail in the
case of a system with a large number of patches applied. They all look
safe to add.
I've pulled down copies of all the various patches which I can
supply if need be. 108528-18 is almost but not quite out yet; it's
available as a signed patch in .jar format but not via ftp or as a .zip
file yet. I imagine they were just midway through updating sunsolve
when I looked earlier today, though.
