Indeed. So coming back around to Roland's write-up: I think it should
recommend -p.
Why recommend a switch which is no longer needed in Solaris >= 10 for
/bin/ksh and /bin/ksh93?
Because it does no harm there, and prevents massive harm on older releases,
which we know millions of people are still using.
