Yes, but note that this version is not 100% compatible since it now
enforces XPG4, e.g. works exactly like if the original Sun versions
would always use /usr/xpg4/bin/sh, additionally the shell expansion adds
ksh93-speciic features (OK, this is no suprise since it uses ksh93 :-) )
and syntax errors are no longer tolerated (this is due the much stricter
parser in ksh93) ...

... can you post the results of your tests, please ?
