  12. We received our first copy of SunOS 4.1.3 yesterday; as with 4.1.2, the media
  13. has preceded the release notes.  Since several others have already posted
  14. about having installed 4.1.3, you might be able to answer these questions:
  15.  
  16.      1)  Does 4.1.3 have OpenWindows 3.n.m bundled, or does it still have
  17.          Ow2.0 as a transition, like 4.1.2 did?  If OW3.n.m, is it 3.0, or
  18.          (hopefully) 3.0.1 or higher, such as is bundled with Solaris 2.0.
  19.  
  20.          In particular, I'm wondering if I need to keep and reinstall the
  21.          various patches I've gotten, especially the ones which fix the
  22.          "undefined symbol" problems when building X11 applications.
  23.  
  24.      2)  What is the state of SunOS 4.1.3 with respect to security-related
  25.          patches:  are the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, sendmail, and secure NIS patches
  26.          included?
