Patching might not work - because the patch may assume versions of the link libraries that are different from what you linked in your original build.
Do you have a sandbox to test the patch? Try it there first. We have a couple of virtual boxes that we can play with for testing. We refresh them using the current production version. -- after we trash them.

Just a quick question here, about Legacy Zones. Well more about how to determine if you are actually in one, on logging into a legacy zone - is there a quick way of checking that?

DESCRIPTION
yum-versionlock(1) is a Yum plugin that takes a set of name/versions for packages and excludes all other versions of those packages
(including optionally following obsoletes). This allows you to protect packages from being updated by newer versions.
The plugin provides a command "versionlock" which allows you to view and edit the list of locked packages easily.

Add a versionlock for all of the packages in the rpmdb matching the given wildcards. yum versionlock exclude <package-wildcard>...

sionlock list

Remove any matching versionlock entries. yum versionlock clear

FILES
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.conf
The system wide configuration file. See yum-versionlock.conf(5) for more information.
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list
The default place to put package version lock information (one package and version per. line). The file takes entries in the follow-
ing format EPOCH:NAME-VERSION-RELEASE.ARCH See rpm(8) for more information on custom query formats. If the package does not have an
EPOCH the number will default to 0.
