I am not shure what you like to say....
stdio if no compatible with sfio.
If the Korn Shell does not use a FILE *std[3] parameter for
builtin functions (as my bsh does for I/O redirection), then
ksh93 seems to rely on _overwriting_ stdin/stdout/stderr.
This will never work for software that has not the internal knowledge of the
libc stdio implementation as libc has hidden additional data for stdin/....
