[Sunhelp] patch

[Magnus Abrante]

No, the pkg* tools where introduced in Solaris 5.x.

As for SunOS 4.x, the patches to SunOS 4.x is just files that you
cp to where they belong.

If you wonder about a specific patch you might also check the modification
date of the files included with it, that might give you a clue to whether
the patch is installed or not.
