Getting ksh in Fedora/RHEL updated is impossible. What Fedora/RHEL
ships is usually an ancient&bug infested ksh which is kept around for
compatibility to satisfy legacy applications but RH does not really
thinks about getting an update train established like for perl&python.

Just rm -rf /bin/ksh and install your own version from ksh
