Hi, during debugging the `set -k' problem of the 93u+ 2012-08-01 I've ported back changes of the current ksh93v- tree, that is
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93> set -k
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93> d=`/bin/echo x y=$(/bin/echo
z)`; echo $d x y=z
x
... with the backport the output becomes correct:
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93> set -k
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93> d=`/bin/echo x y=$(/bin/echo
z)`; echo $d x y=z
x x
but with this backport the ksh93u+ 2012-08-01 as well as the original
ksh93v- 2013-08-27 both have broken pipe IO handling for external
commands:
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93> echo | echo `/usr/bin/date`
abuild@noether:/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ksh93>
... note that with the `date' builtin of the ksh93v- 2013-08-27 it works
but the ksh93u+ 2012-08-01 does not have such a builtin.
For ksh93v- 2013-08-27 an strace with
# strace -s 256 -f -e write,read -p 24282
shows

which leads to the conclusion that the external command has been
disconnected from stdout or that the stdout is not connected to
the terminal or that a pipe/tmpfile redirection is missed. Indeed
if I use the command
echo | echo `ls -l /proc/self/fd/1`
I see in the strace
