No the link are accurate, and as Olga said, what is beta is ksh98v

The story goes like this

Version JM 93u+ 2012-02-29  Is bugged (core dump on ##)
Version AJM 93u+ 2012-06-28 Is correct (regarding ##)
Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01 is correct *regarding ##)

Debian binary ksh package for wheezy gets
Version JM 93u+ 2012-02-29 and match the source code we got with
apt-get source ksh

Bottom line, you rigth, debian has the ksh93u+ but the only wrong one.

Suse got a ksh93+ as well but a good one.

I think wheezy deserve a clean ksh93, and should be patched, without
waitng for next ksh93v

Hope this helps
Cheers,
Phi
