- If you bought 1.5 from Prentice Hall, you already have 1.5.10. If you try
- to patch from 1.5.10 to 1.5.10 using the 1.3 to 1.5.10 patch kit, you can
- be pretty well assured that the resulting files will diverge from the current
- CRC list.

- Be sure to check the list in the README to be sure you are patching from/to
- the correct versions. The 1.6.23 patchkit should have been from 1.5, I think.
- The 1.6.24b should have been from 1.6.23.
