Included in Debian stable:
http://packages.debian.org/posh
This shell was written for the Debian project to check that the
/etc/init.d and other system scripts would be as POSIX compliant as
possible. It allows few non-posix things, that are defined in Debian
Policy; like 'local' keyword -- thus the name "Almost".
I find this one to be of the most strict shells around and a good
checking tool for sh-scripts.

sdesc: "Almost POSIX compliant SHell"
ldesc: "A stripped-down version of pdksh that aims for close
compliance of POSIX. Posh is intended to be used for revealing if
/bin/sh scripts use features that most /bin/sh shells do not have."
