As of 2022-06-18, ksh 93u+m is not capable of being used as /bin/sh
while building GNU binutils. The execution of some of its build
system's dot scripts is incorrectly aborted as an external 'sed'
command is execve(2)'d without forking. This means that incorrect
exec optimization was happening.
Unfortunately I have not been able to derive a minimal reproducer
of the problem yet because the GNU binutils build scripts are very
complex. Pending further research, the optimisation is reverted.
Even if a way to make it work is found, it will not be reintroduced
to the 1.0 branch.
Thanks to @atheik for finding the problem and identifying the
commit that introduced it.
Resolves: #507
