I've put out 9.2.3 for Linux containing a bunch of the latest fixes.
9.2.3 for Solaris will wait a day or so.

Due to a bug in rpm 4.2, Linux machines already running 9.2 will be
stuck at 9.2.1 unless you manually update the athena-rpmupdate
package.  (You'll see a bunch of spurious dependency failures trying
to update to 9.2.3 otherwise.)  To do so, run (as root):

  cd /afs/dev.mit.edu/system/rhlinux/athena-9.2/RPMS
  rpm -Uvh athena-rpmupdate-9.2-3.i386.rpm

Then you can run update_ws.
