Package: ksh
Version: 93s+20080202-1

There is a significant memory leak in ksh that can be reproduced with
the following (trivial) script:

#!/bin/ksh

while :
do
    ps -ef 2>&1 > /dev/null
done


Literally any external command will cause this leak inside of a while
loop. But it has been specifically reproduced with:
* which
* netstat
* ps
