Sorry about this, but I just noticed an error in my instructions ...
I _really_ need you to upgrade to the 2.3 "dev" version of PCP from
    ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp/download/dev/pcp-2.3.0.src.tar.gz
_not_ the 2.2.2-11 version I mention below.  The patch will not apply
against the 2.2.2 source for pmie.
