I was assuming that the common code would live somewhere else in the
source tree and be owned by ON, rather than being owned by ksh93.
Though now that you mention it, I guess that approach has its own set of
issues, like how to package/build an unbundled (direct from ATT) version
of ksh93 for Solaris.
