Claims 19-22 and 31-33 stand rejected under the
judicially created doctrine of obviousness-type double patenting
as being unpatentable over the invention claimed in Katsura 1 in
view of Stone. Claims 19-22 and 31-33 also stand provisionally
rejected under the judicially created doctrine of obviousness-
type double patenting as being unpatentable over the invention
claimed in copending application Serial No. 08/213,820 in view of
Stone. Copending application Serial No. 08/213,820 has become U.
S. Patent No. 5,751,930 (Katsura 2), and this rejection will now
be considered as an actual double patenting rejection based on
Katsura 2. Finally, claims 19-22 and 31-33 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over the teachings of
Fleming in view of Stone.
