Well, you haven't called for them yet, but I would ask (beg?) that you
apply this patch for 0.5.8.  I need it for Compaq Tru64 UNIX.  I think
AIX also needs it.  It has no ill effect (that I can detect) on
Solaris, Linux or IRIX.

I don't understand why it hasn't been applied yet, given the long time
it's been known.  It's a PITA for me, and has led to some rather
confused links on the ORBit Resource Page intended to describe the
problem and the patch.  It would be so much better if the patch were
just applied now.

Taken from

Note that I'm not talking about the other patches in his Aron's
message, just the one below.

Thanks,
David
