This is what happens on 5.4-beta/i386
(and any other version I got my hands on):

        $ cd
        $ pwd
        /home/hans
        $ . .shrc
        /bin/ksh: .: .shrc: not found
        $ . ~/.shrc
        $ echo $SHELL
        /bin/ksh

Why is it that ksh can find ~/.shrc and '.' it,
but cannot find .shrc, which is the very same file?
