A patch is a patch even if it's for an older game. Epic Games today released a new patch for UT2003 for Linux and OS X. The patch includes numerous OpenGL, OpenAL, and Unix fixes.
New patches for Unreal Tournament 2003 are now available to upgrade the Linux and Mac OSX ports by Icculus of the multiplayer first-person shooter by Epic Games to version 2225.3. This release closes a "security hole with GameSpy 'secure' packet buffer overflow," and in the Linux edition also fixes a large number of issues that were previously addressed in the Mac OSX version, hence the Linux patch is considered a beta release.
