Patch Name:  PHSS_4159

Patch Description: c++ptlink/CC problems with C++ version A.03.40

   c++ptlink/CC fails with long command lines and archive libs.

   This patch applies to C++ version A.03.40, which first appears
   on the April 1994 HP-UX Application Release.

1. ptlink would core dump if the length of the objects from instantiation and
   all the other files on the ld line were more than 8 K.

2. ptlink could not process archive libraries of template objects and reports
   "syntax errors".

3. ptlink or driver CC might abort with the following errors:
   /lib/pa1.1:/usr/lib/pa1.1:/lib:/usr/lib: is not an identifier
   internal error: fast popen() failed on %s (725)

   if any component that CC(the driver) tries to invoke is a shell script
   instead of a program.  I.e. when the -t?,name option is used.

   Also if +DA1.1 was used, the wrong set of libraries would be used.

4. If -ptr ./ptrepository is used as the first of many -ptr options, all
   instantionations are done in the second repository.  Also if the first of
   many -ptr options doesn't contain a valid defmap file, no instantionations
   are done.

After getting the patch onto your machine, unshar the patch (sh PHSS_4159).

To install this patch do the following:
1) Run /etc/update (Note: you must be logged in as root to update
   a system).
2) Once in the update "Main Menu" move the highlighted line to "Change
   Source or Destination ->" and press "Return" or "Select Item".
3) Make sure the highlighted item in the "Change Source or Destination"
   window is "From Tape Device to Local System ...", then press "Return" or
   "Select Item".
4) You should now be in the "From Tape Device to Local System" window.
   Change the "Source:  /dev/rmt/0m" to "Source: /tmp/PHSS_4159.updt"
   (this assumes that you are in the /tmp directory where PHSS_4159.updt
   has been placed).  Note: You must enter the complete path name.
5) Press "Done".
6) From here on follow the standard directions for update.

The customized script that update runs will move the original software
to /system/PHSS_4159/orig.  HP recommends keeping this software there in
order to recover from any potential problems.  It is also recommended that
you move the PHSS_4159.text file to /system/PHSS_4159 to be retained for
future reference.

If you wish to put this patch on a magnetic tape and update from the tape
drive, dd a copy of the patch to the tape drive.  As an example the
following will create a copy of the patch that update can read:
dd if=PHSS_4159.updt of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2048
