I've been experiencing the referenced error regularly, but when I went
looking for the knowledge base article, it was nowhere to be found. And,
when I started to run the patch, it warns me to backup my system and update
my startup disk (like there was such a thing ??).

Has this patch gone back to the drawing board?

I think I will err on the side of caution, and not apply the patch. But, I
would like to know what the error is thought to be about, and whether I
should be taking other action with regard to it.

The kb article (judging by past experience) will probably be up in the next few days.
