Congratulations on isolating this bug. I'm sure you had a lot of fun
with 125555-06 :) It's a good example why a programmer shouldn't rely on
any assumptions - obviously the author of the prepatch script couldn't
imagine a root filesystem which isn't named "/". Though of course the
output of "df -n" isn't really nicely machine-readable either ..

Don - is there a chance that we get a new revision of 125555 which would
fix this? While 137137 is pre-installed in Solaris after 10 10/08, there
are obviously still people patching older systems.
Martin.
