Description

Severity: Low = Problem is minor loss of function, or other problem where *easy workaround is present*. you can use following workaround export PATH=$PATH: Also do not expect any change at all, because upstream would definitely refuse this AND it would break compatibility a lot (with other shells) AND it would be insecure AND it would break users expectations. The only thing I can do is to remove/fix that confusing sentence in man page. This can be reproduced with latest ksh version released by upstream, which is expected because from functionality POV this is notabug. I think this bugzilla should be closed as WONTFIX now. Thank you. Eh. Forget the previous comment please. There is still the manual page which should be fixed. Sorry....
