There is/was a patch for this, I don't recall what number...someone else... and most likely Sun have rolled this into 4.1.3_U1 (don't you wish they would roll a 4.1.4 and just be done with it ? And move all those damn security fixes that have gone into Solaris2 into SunOS 4 - some of us _hate_ svr4 and the new kernel architecture - not very easy to customize or configure/optimize the kernel at all!). And there was a similar bug in Solaris2.x (x=0,1 ?) which has also been patched. ob`bug': ever had a cd-rom mounted on sunos4 and ejected it without umounting it first ? not much fun...
