If we want to enforce portable scripting via using the POSIX tools then

/usr/xpg6/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin before /usr/bin to make sure we use thos
features mandated by POSIX/XPG6 (I can make a patch for that after the
ksh93 putback).

What problem is this solving though ?

The fact that the internal to the build system scripts aren't POSIX compliant doesn't appear to be causing any problems that I can see. Some of the most useful autocheck tools in the build system aren't even written in shell script at all but in perl.
