The pf*sh issue is somewhat broader than just the builtins. In the ideal world the pf*sh would just have a flag bit set and the kernel would take care of most of the rest. (So a pf*sh would not involve changing the code in the shell). For now, the easiest route I think is disabling all "non-standard" builtins for pfksh93. Casper
