Package: pdksh
Version: 5.2.14-21
Severity: normal
According to POSIX[*], "test \( ! -e \)" is a 4-argument test and is
here equivalent to "test ! -e". Note: here "-e" is not a switch, just
an non-empty string like in "test ! -e". But pdksh (like ksh93, bash
and dash, for which a bug has also been reported) yields an error:
$ test \( ! -e \) || echo $?
pdksh: test: missing closing paren
2
However this one is correct:
$ test ! -e || echo $?
1
The "test" utility from the Coreutils on the 4-argument test is correct:
$ /usr/bin/test \( ! -e \) || echo $?
1
(ditto with the latest zsh versions).

In particular, see the text starting at "The algorithm for determining
the precedence of the operators".
