I may be reading this incorrectly, but since we are going to Solaris
2.5.1, most of these patches do not apply.

Assuming that os version 2.5 patches are already bundled into 2.5.1,
the only remaining patches are:

ID         OS version     Topic
101242-11  2.4,2.5,2.5.1  libC shared library fixes
103606-02  2.5.1          libld.so.2 patch
103810-01  2.5.1          make patch

a fix to libc, lib loader, and make?

Perhaps if we could see some of the description of why these fixes
are desirable it would help us understand whether we should try
putting them in at this point or not.

Thanks
Mike
