If there is no patch, then it's not in u4, and as there is no patch ( I 
checked ), then it will be u5 at the earliest I assume.

BTW you do not have to upgrade to get bug fixes, the official patch will 
apply fine to your system once it releases ( apply latest patch add first ).

But it appears the IDR is your only solution for now, post applying the 
IDR, you will not be able to patch SUNWzfskr package, which means you 
will not be able to apply the U4 KU 120011/120012, without first running 
patchrm on the IDR, as IDR's lock the package to stop further patching 
of the package.

Just so you are aware.
