according to SUSv3 and other modern shells (POSIX allows both).
Idea for the patch (add another lex state) from OpenBSD, but the
implementation differs slightly (and is better in quality).
Also add two testcases (/bin/sh passes both, old mksh only one),
and document the change in the manual page. Sync RCS IDs with OBSD.
sitory whose ChangeLog follows. mksh R21 is licenced under the MirOS li-
cence, shown in "sh.h", and a two-clause UCB-style licence by Marc Espie
as shown in "alloc.c".
This executable is a fair bit smaller and shorter than our /bin/ksh that
it is designed to eventually replace (as /bin/sh hardlink), with the old
/bin/ksh to completely vanish. It is still in beta testing though, and I
don't think it will compile on other operating systems.
mksh R21 is a completely new port, bringing together the OpenBSD-current
/bin/ksh, the MirOS-current /bin/ksh and the older mksh R20 (which still
was portable, ocvs-based).
- expat as discussed with bsiegert@ today on the phone
- ksh as announced earlier on the lists
* un-hook lib/libexpat from make includes
* remove /usr/include/{,open}ssl upgrade workaround from includes/Makefile
* nuke old bin/ksh
* nuke libexpat and xmlwf

The following ksh diff needs wide testing. It does the following:
1) proper error message for bad substitution.
Before:
$ echo ${a[@]:foo}
ksh: : bad substitution
After:
$ echo ${a[@]:foo}
ksh: ${a[@]:foo}: bad substitution
2) fix a core dump for "echo ${a[@]:?foo}".
3) fix a use-after-free bug (from otto@)
