It is likely you are running the ksh88 version, which has
quite a few ``pre-POSIX'' features. Try this command to see
whether you have ksh88 or ksh93:
echo ${.sh.version}
If you have ksh93, you'll see something like
Version M 1993-12-28 i
Perhaps with a different letter at the end (`i' is the source
release). I believe you'll get an error or nothing if it's
ksh88.
