Question is now whether usr/src/lib/libshell/common/data/builtins.c now
needs a "Sun copyright" or not. My preference would be to avoid adding
any Sun/CDDL license/copyright/etc. template in this case (1. I don't
like adding a Sun copyright to David&&Glenn sources unless it's
completely unavoidable and 2. the change would add a giant section to
usr/src/lib/libshell/misc/ksh93_solaris_builtin_patch.diff with exactly
zero techincal value) - the change is quite small (just counting the
lines) while the major change is done in "solaris_cmdlist.h" (which is
CDDL-licensed and has a Sun copyright) ; alternatively the "rule" to
contribute Sun code under the AT&T license could be applied in this case
(see
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2007-January/002001.html).

If it was me and I had that approval I wouldn't be putting Sun copyrights anywhere, and I'd be trying to get the changes accepted upstream if at all possible.

In fact, that's exactly what I *did* do for perl ;-)
