BugId's fixed with this patch: 1052649 1045582 1067567

Changes incorporated in this version: corrected problem with sun4 binary

Architectures for which this patch is available: sun4 sun4c

Problem Description:

Write system call is interruptable by signals. Programs behave differently
under 4.1.1 than 4.1. This causes failures in database server processes.
This patch also includes a fix for bug 1045582, which causes trouble for
NeWSprint 1.0.  Bug 1067567 describes the conflict between NeWSprint 1.0
and SunDBE, which this patch resolves.  N.B.  this patch is the SunDBE
equivalent of generic SunOS patch 100293-04.

INSTALL:

Install only a system on which SunDBE 1.1 has been installed. This patch is
not intended for generic SunOS 4.1.1 and is not compatible with it. This patch
is also not intended for use with any other version of SunDBE besides 1.1.
