Uhm... a new port would just grab
usr/src/lib/libshell/misc/buildksh93.ksh, build&&test ksh93 that way and
then move the generated headers over into the OS/Net tree. It is not
intended to port the generated headers from one architecture (e.g.
SPARC) to another one (e.g. PowerPC). Rememeber we do not want to fork()
the ksh93 sources and that includes all porting work.
Porting AST/ksh93 to Solaris/PPC should be done on the native AST
codebase first (which allows better testing), tested there and then
pulled-over into OS/Net.
