           Summary: Old libtools think OpenSolaris uses EBCDIC
           Product: ksh93-integration
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386 (32bit+64bit)
        OS/Version: Solaris 11/Nevada
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: App/ksh93
        AssignedTo: ksh93-integration-discuss at opensolaris.org
        ReportedBy: chrisridd at mac.com


(Sent direct to ksh93-integration-discuss earlier in error, sorry.)

The following snippet reports "EBCDIC" in OpenSolaris on x86 and "ASCII" in all
other Unixes I could find (including Solaris 8 - 10):

---
#!/bin/sh

case `echo A|tr A '\301'` in
 A) echo "EBCDIC\n" ;;
 *) echo "ASCII\n" ;;
esac
---

It is present in some old versions of libtool (this one was from libspf2) and
while easily replaced with a working snippet from newer libtools, looks like an
interesting regression that could be fixed.
