On the following platform:
Linux version 2.6.32-5-686 (Debian 2.6.32-46)
gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4)

ksh93 compiles, but fails to initialize:
$ strace ~/ast-base.2013-06-28/arch/linux.i386/bin/ksh
[...]
openat(AT_FDCWD, ".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECT) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid 
argument)
write(2, "ksh: Can't obtain directory fd. "..., 51ksh: Can't obtain 
directory fd. [Invalid argument]) = 51
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
Memory fault

the cause for EINVAL is the flag displayed by strace as O_DIRECT
it happens that O_DIRECT and O_SEARCH collide: both of them are 040000
nullifying O_SEARCH with #define O_SEARCH 0 is a possible workaround
(but probably not a fix)
