That may be true of Oracle's commercial Solaris Product, but we are talking about OpenSolaris here. The architectural point is that the user/admin needs control of things like this; with ksh93 builtins, they have that ability (i.e., they can turn builtins off...) and update binutils packages and the like. There is no magic here. -John
