Hi!

----

It seems command substitutions are broken on ast-ksh.2013-08-14 on
Solaris 11/B145/AMD64/64bit.

The following testcase...
-- snip --
seq 10000000 >"tmpfile.expected"

s="${ print -- "$( s="${  /bin/cat "tmpfile.expected" | cat  ; }" ;
/bin/cat <<<"${s}" )" ; }"
/bin/cat <<<"${s}" >"tmpfile.output"

diff -u "tmpfile.expected" "tmpfile.output"
-- snip --
... should let $ diff -u ... # report that there are no differences...
but it reports differences between "tmpfile.expected" and
"tmpfile.output" ... which should AFAIK not happen...

Bye,
Roland
