[pca] Corrupted boot_archive

Howdy everyone, I just recently started using PCA again after having so much trouble getting it to download and install patches.
I upgraded 2 boxes, one a sparc and one an X86, to 10 10/09.
I patched the SPARC and rebooted and was faced with an ugly "unable to create boot_archive" error which destroyed the FS. I tried using boot -F failsafe and spent 45 minutes hitting "y" until I just gave up swapped with the clone and dd'd back to health.
I have patched my other systems with pca 201006, no the current release, with no problem.
Any one else have an issue with the latest SPARC patches?
By the way I also did it with updatemanager with the same results.
