    The good Dr. Blinn took the time to check with the patch kit team. It
    turns out that most of the kits descriptions DO list the checksums.
    I happened to be "browsing" for the patches that applied to Tru64 V4.0G/TCR
    V1.6 and the first patch that appears is SSRT1-69U_V4.0G and the text file
    for this kit does NOT have the checksums documented.

    I will make a generalization that it looks like if the patch is of the
    "normal" name format -- T64KIT<patchnumber>-<buildversion>-<type>-date --
    hte checksums should be documented in the description file.
