Yes, I tried it with the ast-ksh.2007-04-18 binary from Al Hoppers's
"ksh93-amd64" machine (it doesn't have any japanese lcoales installed
but "fr_CA.UTF-8" works as substitute, too (BTW: default locale for my
login session is "en_US.UTF-8" in this case)):

Raw guessing... this isn't related to "-D_map_libc=1", right ?
