I just ran into an odd behaviour tonight (see bug
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=502).

The following script:

printf "\n----------------------\n"
printf "   IP configuration   \n"
printf "----------------------\n\n"

...works under ye olde /sbin/sh (bourne shell), but fails with
"unknown option" under ksh93.

Since I'm rather daft about some nuances of shell syntax, can someone
explain this to me?

Cheers,
