URGENT PLEASE!!!!!!!

If any one has any information on the malfuntion of:

Hitachi chip: 6063 date code 0a2q and 9b38


Apparently a batch produced in malyasia from about 1990 Jan 12-18
(batch size about 100,000?) have an abnormality in the optical dye.

In most cases the chps are fine, except in some situations when there
are malfunctions (duhh!!) after hibernation.  However, if the chips are 
asked to rehibernate, and then taken out, the chips works fine.  In 
standard testing the chips perform properly as well.  Any assistance or 
information that you might be able to offer is greatly appreciated.

Please mail any information to honjo1@husc.harvard.edu.
