My original comment about /bin being linked to /usr/bin applied only to
Solaris, AIX, and HPUX. Yet, all the examples of why I am wrong are from
Linux. If you were on a Unix system, there would not be a /lib/ast/ksh,
as KornShell is in /usr/bin. The other difference you will notice is
that AIX now has bsh for Bourne Shell. Those who use Unix also notice
the emphasis on hard links in Unix versus symbolic links in Linux.
