Tom,
this works great for "login" sessions, but it doesn't work for
crond and rshd so I still have the problem!
Actually, I found /etc/security/pam_env.conf which should work for all
pam-enabled services, but it doesn't seem to work for either crond or
rshd.
I tried re-building the RPM from SRPM and defining _UNIV_DEFAULT=att in
the CCFLAGS, but it still defaults to ucb.
*Sigh* - I really just want a solution that works...

Well, I just found another workaround that will probably be even better
for us. Simple setting the envrionment variable _AST_FEATURES to
'UNIVERSE - att' causes echo to revert to the behavior we want (I this
worked by calling getconf in a ksh environment but didn't know how to
set it via an environment variable). I've added it to our /etc/profile
on our test system and this appears catch all of our cases.
Later,
Tom
