>Description:
	ksh93 dumps core seemingly at random.
>How-To-Repeat:
	in a sufficiently large glob request, say

grep stdio */*

	watch the core dump.  (my example generates a glob list of 194
	elements.  I don't know the exact repeat parameteres.)
>Fix:
	Apparantly, a fix is pending at AT&T.  The real problem is in
	sfio and/or stak.

	Until then, fix the symptoms with the following patch to
	src/cmd/ksh93/sh/path.c (which I placed in
	files/src_cmd_kah93_sh_path.c):

--- path.c.orig	Mon Mar 11 10:50:16 2002
