Getting preq errors when install U427864

Env:
   AIX 3.2.5
   8mm 2.3gb
         
 Desc:  Customer is installing ptf U427864 and is running into a Preq error
        problem.  The installp command states that the customer needs to
        have perfagent 1.1 on the system before it can install U427864.
        The customer has peragent 1.2 on the system.

 Action:  I have checked the .toc file and found this:
          PTF U427864 has a ifreq bos.obj p=U427862 and PTF U427862
          has a *ifreq perfagent p=U427863.  PTF U427863 has a
          *prereq perfagent v=01 r=01 m=0000.  This problem is keeping
          the customer from installing ptf U427864.  I am not sure if
          there is a bug in the install process (.toc file) or can a
          customer not be able to install this ptf if he has perfagent 1.2

   Opened defect 167493 against perfagent to provide
  a permanent solution.

This is a result of PMRs 7x003,49r, and 7x033,49r

Problem description:

perfagent 1.2 needs to have a golden, dummy
ptf to supersede all the perfagent 1.1 ptfs.
Atleast those, that are involved in an oldstyle
ifreq following the X11r4/X11r5  example.

We can build this golden ptf, and repackage perfagent
which can refreshed in Jan.
