Description
RFE: Update /usr/bin/join to AT&T AST "join".
The utility is already available as ksh93 builtin and simply needs
to be "connected" to /usr/bin/join once we have the confirmation
that it passes the VSC test suite and the usual row of other tests.
As a side-effect we get:
- GNU+BSD command line options (which increases interoperabilty)
- Massive performance boost for OpenSolaris/Indiana since the tool
is a builtin shell command for /usr/bin/sh, /sbin/sh,
/usr/bin/ksh and /usr/bin/ksh93
- 64bit clean codebase.
- Living and _cooperative_ upstream who does bugfixing
- Code remains under a CDDL(-compatible) license
