I received replies from Peter Stern <Peter.Stern at weizmann.ac.il> and Oisin McGuinness <Oisin at smbc-cm.com>. Oisin hit the nail on the head:
The subsets were *not* installed when I built the system in 1999. If they were, the output of setld -i would include the "installed" field.
When I tried to install the subsets from the 4.0f CD, I had to first uninstall a bunch of patches from pk8 and beyond before setld would allow me to install the C2 subsets. Then when I went to reinstall all the patches, I had to remove all the customizations required to get OpenAFS running, reinstall the patches and then rebuild the kernel with OpenAFS support. Configuring Enhanced Security was a piece of cake compared to all the effort removing and reinstalling the patches.
Thanks very much, Oisin. You pointed me in the right direction.
