Package: ksh

Severity: normal
Tags: patch
This is basically a mirror of bug #1053938 reported for Fedora:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1053938
The bug exists for the ksh package on Debian too (tried both
stable and sid on PowerPC) and can be reproduced pretty reliable
with the details in the above mentioned bug report.
Michal Hlavinka was able to provide a fix that has been included
the latest Fedora package of ksh.
I'll attach Michal's patch to that bug report. Moving this to
debian/patches and editing the series file built the package just fine
and fixed the bug.
