Are there any news?
Just an example session on the command line:
tcsh> setenv LANG ja_JP.SJIS
tcsh> ksh
ksh> set -x
ksh> test -n $(/usr/bin/printf '\x81\x7c')
+ /usr/bin/printf '\x81\x7c'
+ test -n '�\|'
ksh> mbchar="$(printf "\x81\x7c")"
+ printf '\x81\x7c'
+ mbchar=�|
ksh> test $(/usr/bin/printf '\x81\x7c') = ${mbchar}
+ /usr/bin/printf '\x81\x7c'
+ test '�\|' = �|
as seen, the byte \x7c (aka `|') of the multi byte character
is escaped. Btw: doing
ksh> $(/usr/bin/printf '\x81\x5c')
Segmentation fault
seems to cause a segmentation fault.
