Symptoms:
	PHCO_18575:
	1. sed -e 's/[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*//g' does not function
	   correctly in C locale.
	2. sed core dumps when the length of input string is
	   larger than 4000 bytes.

	PHCO_15468:
	1. sed '/^$/d' inputfile - does not function correctly in
	   Japanese locale. The superseded sed patch PHCO_12862
	   was not functioning correctly due to a problem in the
	   underlying libc patch.

	PHCO_12862:
	1. sed '/^$/d' inputfile - does not function correctly in
	   Japanese locale.

	PHCO_10868:
	1. sed -n -e '/^.*1$/p' -e '/[23]$/p' doesn't handle
	   regexp correctly.
	   'sed' for 10.20 (rev 78.9.1.1) has a defect searching
	   for string.
	   10.20's sed broken using pattern "/\A$/" in script.
	   sed does not handle next/join command.
	   sed 78.9 has a problem with escaped new-lines.
	   10.20 sed incompatible with previous releases
	   (loss of output)

	PHCO_9211:
	1. Poor performance of 10.X regular expression processing
	   in comparison to 9.x.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_18575:
	1. sed -e 's/[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*//g' does not function
	   correctly in C locale.
	   The superseded sed patch PHCO_15468 was not functioning
	   correctly due to a problem in the underlying libc patch
	   PHCO_14891.
	Resolution:
	   This patch has been rebuilt with the corrected libc
	   patch PHCO_18018.

	2. sed core dumps when the length of input string is
	   larger than 4000 bytes.
	Resolution:
	   The buffer(LBSIZE) size is incresed to 4k.

	PHCO_15468:
	1. sed '/^$/d' inputfile - does not function correctly in
	   Japanese locale. This patch has been rebuilt with the
	   corrected libc patch PHCO_14891.

	PHCO_12862:
	1. sed '/^$/d' inputfile - does not function correctly in
	   Japanese locale. This is due to a defect in PHCO_10868.
	   The libc patch PHCO_10027 which was used in building
	   the sed patch was defective.

	PHCO_10868:
	1. sed -n -e '/^.*1$/p' -e '/[23]$/p' doesn't handle
	   regexp correctly.
	   'sed' for 10.20 (rev 78.9.1.1) has a defect searching
	   for string.

Installation Instructions:
	Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard
	SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms
	and conditions for precautions, scope of license,
	restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties,
	before installing this patch.
	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. Back up your system before installing a patch.

	2. Login as root.

	3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.

	4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:

		cd /tmp
		sh PHCO_18575

	5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
	    patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHCO_18575.depot

	5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the
	    server to install the patch on the server and the clients:

		swcluster -i -b

	    This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and
	    force all clients to be shut down.

	    WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the
		     patch installation.  Installing the patch while the
		     clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to
		     serious problems.

	    The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which
	    you must specify:

		alternate root path  -  default is /export/shared_root/OS_700
		source depot path    -  /tmp/PHCO_18575.depot

	    To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing
	    "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install"
	    from the Menubar.

	5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster:

		- run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install
		  the patch on the cluster server.

		- run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install
		  the patch on the cluster clients.

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in
	/var/adm/sw/patch/PHCO_18575.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, you can create an empty file
	named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE.

	Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the
	         patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
		 when using this feature.

	It is recommended that you move the PHCO_18575.text file to
	/var/adm/sw/patch for future reference.

	To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
	tape drive, use the command:

		dd if=/tmp/PHCO_18575.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k
