It's just an normal application servers company's business needs, when it's used and maintained on Solaris 10, we found some bugs about it, and made some hotfixes to resolve those bugs, also we tried to install such hotfix packages with "patchadd" command - this is how the issue was introduced.

As I wrote, only Sun, now Oracle has the ability to build patches that can be installed with patchadd. The naming and method are proprietary. Packages, which on the opposite can be built by everyone, are installed with pkgadd, not patchadd.
