Symptoms:
	PHCO_25081:
	PHCO_21928 breaks hard link between /usr/bin/w and
	/usr/bin/uptime.

	PHCO_21928:
	In a multi processor system, if any processor other
	than the last processor is deallocated, uptime(1)
	shows incorrect load averages information.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_25081:
	According to uptime(1) manpage, /usr/bin/w is a
	hard link to /usr/bin/uptime. PHCO_21928 installs
	a new version of /usr/bin/uptime but doesn't re-link
	/usr/bin/w, leaving old version of /usr/bin/w in
	the system.

	Resolution:
	Now postinstall script explicitly links /usr/bin/w
	with /usr/bin/uptime.

	PHCO_21928:
	In a multiprocessor system of say, n processors,
	when a processor other than the processor "n" is
	deallocated, uptime(1) skips the information of
	processor "n" instead of the deallocated processor.
	While calculating the averages, uptime(1) takes the
	deallocated processor into consideration instead of
	processor "n".

	Resolution:
	The mpctl(2) call is used in uptime(1) to find the
	allocated processors' numbers and uptime(1)
	is made to display and calculate information
	only for the allocated processors.
