You can add Dell V.4 running on a 386. This was ksh88e (yes, the new
one), I had some problems compiling the 88d version on this system. I
used makeshell, and first the config got some coredumps (but it's
testing for failures, it's okay), then the compiler gave me a look at
just about all the warning messages it has, but the result runs like a
champ. I'm not going to make it the default ksh until I beat it for a
week, but the job control works, and the BRACEPAT is on (which is why I
bothered).
