Default Strange FP 4 installation Problem (DB2 V 8.1)

I am administering a DB2 UDB 8.1 server on Solaris 9. I have experienced a
strange problem when applying FixPak 4a. Here's a short timeline of what
happened:

1) Installed DB2 UDB v8.1 for Solaris 64bit
2) created instance and sample database successfully
3) applied Fixpak 4a
4) attempted to run db2start, but all the execute permissions had been
removed from db2start.
5) Issued a db2level command and the output suggested I now had a 32-bit
version of DB2.

I'm able to back out of the FixPak successfully, but DB2 is still indicated
at 32-bits and each time I apply the FixPak, the db2binaries are disabled
from execution. Has anyone ever seen this?
