Dear SCO Customer,

Support Level Supplement (SLS) ptf7670a, the UnixWare 7 libprof Supplement, 
addresses the following problems:

1. fprof start state does not work correctly, specifically the options
   -m (mark) -o (on) -O (off).

2. fprof gets a segmentation violation error.

3. time start is erratic.

4. The count command doesn't work per the manual page.

5. Certain behavior of marks is not documented.

6. Documentation describes arguments to the count and seek_mark
   commands that are either not parsed or not supported.
