I did run pdksh for a time.
pdksh does not work well with sourced
function files. I have a large collection
of ksh func files that I use for development,
and each func turns a tedious set of steps
into a single command.
That is why I abandoned it.

At any rate, back to my question.
Should I file a bug with redhat or with ksh
maintainers (if they have a dedicated bugzilla page).

Cheers,

JD
