Re: WMF patch from M$

[Gregory Hicks <ghicks () cadence com>]

Greetings:

I've seen someone (some someones?) hint that after patching, printing
may (note MAY) be broken.

I tried Ilfak's patch and didn't notice anything.  I've also caused a
number (about 40) machines to be patched with the M$ patch and still do
not notice anything broken.  (I have about 6.5K left to go...)

Any idea on what combination of events 'break' things?

I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes.  I will surely
learn a great deal today.
