Deleted /var/adm/sw/patch

I am on a HP-UX 11.0 machine and I deleted '/var/adm/sw/patch'. I realize now what a mistake this was. Since doing this I can no longer export display to remotely view netscape. At this point, what are my options for recovering the 'patch' directory? I don't have a backup.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
Sean
