PHSS_38154 supersedes a bunch of patches listed as being required in the 
NetBackup 6.5 release notes.

Unfortunately, it ALSO supersedes PHSS_30968, a patch which "Symantec 
recommends that you do not install". They recommend that because if you do 
install it, bpbkar on a client being backed up fails (before doing anything) 
with the message "aCC runtime: Use of "-mt" must be consistent during both 
compilation and linking." (I think this has something to do with linking with 
the OS's pthreads library and differences between the HP and Veritas build 
chains, but don't quote me on that.)

We're awaiting response from each vendor but, for now, if your HP Account 
Advocate suggests you install patch PHSS_38154 on any HP-UX 11.11 system where 
you run NetBackup (really, any: this affects the client portion's behavior), 
don't do it.
