Look closer, e.g at:

 > 112661 06 < 11 RS- 478 SunOS 5.9: IIIM and X Input & Output ...

and

They aren't in numerical order. While pca uses the order of patches in 
the patchdiag.xref by default (which is numerical), it *does* resolve 
the dependencies correctly. When in doubt, use pca's --debug option or 
simply try to install the patches.
