Public bug reported:

According to the man page for ksh the following arithmetic functions are built 
in:
abs  acos  acosh  asin  asinh atan atan2 atanh cbrt copysign cos cosh erf erfc 
exp exp2 expm1 fabs fdim finite
floor fma fmax fmod hypot ilogb int isinf isnan lgamma  log  log2  logb  
nearbyint  nextafter  nexttoward  pow
remainder rint round sin sinh sqrt tan tanh tgamma trunc

However when I try to use the function such as:
print $(( sqrt(25) ))
I get the error message
/bin/ksh: sqrt(25) : unknown function

I tried the same command on other distributions of ksh93, RH, Fedora,
AIX and I received the correct answer of 5.
