what is this single point of failure?
have you submitted the bug to a JIRA or bugzilla to address this?
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-0552/gbfdy?a=view
If the patch was not in latest distro
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-0552/apa-sparc-23587?a=view
then when will it be scheduled in?
thanks,
Martin
