Do we know which one(s) are the problem?  Has anybody played with 
putting RH8 shared libs in a dir then playing LD_LIBRARY_PATH games
with the NB45 software?

While I don't disagree with your comment on RH releases, I would think 
a company like Veritas would be quicker on the draw for a release that's
been out since March....  This is especially critical for those of us
in medical scientific computing (Genomics, Proteomics, Genetics) where 
much of the code is being written under Linux (and bleeding edge versions 
of packages at that).  I was happy with RH9- it FINALLY had some fixes 
that should have gone into RH8!
