I notice this problem (cd is broken) on

Version JM 93u+ 2012-02-29

Linux version 3.2.0-3-amd64 (Debian 3.2.23-1) (
[email protected]) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-8) ) #1
SMP Mon Jul 23 02:45:17 UTC 2012

With the last Debian update ... the ksh version is still the same but now
it's OK !
Actually, I have still  a machine with a broken cd.

Regards,

yves
