Silicon Graphics does not distribute patches for SGI Freeware software.


In the seyon case you arent allowed to. Its got one of those
modifications via author clauses. The Linux folks tried to chase down
the author and we failed. If anyone does know where he is that would
be great to know.

Silicon Graphics wishes to thank the NCSA and other FIRST Organization
(http://www.first.org/) members for their assistance in this matter.


How about the guys who found it too ?
