    Yet another file which you're not supposed to touch,
    or you'll disrupt future patch kit installation -
    Tru64 patch management never stops surprising me...

    The file /etc/pmgrd_iorate.config should be a soft link to
    ../cluster/members/{memb}/etc/pmgrd_iorate.config
    which I had somehow overwritten. Recreating the soft
    link by
       cd /etc; ln -s '../cluster/members/{memb}/etc/pmgrd_iorate.config'
    (notice the quotes to escape {memb}) fixes the problem.
    Now I could let dupatch do a baseline check without error.

    Thanks to these people for the correct answer:
