Uhm... that's because the "echo" builtin isn't bound to a path, e.g. ...
-- snip --
$ ksh93 -c 'builtin | fgrep echo'
echo
-- snip --
... which was AFAIK done for performance reasons (dgk may correct me).

AFAIK you want sonmething like this:
-- snip --
$ ksh93 -c 'PATH=/usr/ucb:/usr/bin ; builtin /usr/bin/echo ; builtin -d echo ;
echo -n "foo"'
-- snip --

The question is now whether this is really a bug or not. AFAIK long ago in the
initial stages of the ksh93-integration project Don Cragun pointed this issue
out and said we _must_ address this when we use ksh93 as /usr/xpg4/bin/sh but
for /usr/bin/ksh93 and /usr/bin/ksh we may not require this (assuming I remeber
Don's comments correctly).
