Oh well. Can the shell be told to not output these warnings somehow? I took a quick look at <http://dlc.sun.com/osol/man/downloads/current/> but couldn't find a switch or environment variable to do so.I assume that this OpenSolaris system has the "new" ksh93 shell, which is vastly different than previous Solaris /bin/sh and includes much more than a shell (it is a shell + utilities). The project page for this is at http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+ksh93%2Dintegration/Yes, it appears so. It links to a file ksh93. bash-3.2$ ls -l /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 26 17:20 /bin/sh -> ../../sbin/sh bash-3.2$ ls -l /sbin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Oct 26 17:17 /sbin/sh -> ../usr/bin/i86/ksh93
But ksh93 does not complain about `...`, on neither X86, nor Sparc Solaris, look:
[root@nostromo ~]# sed -n -e 1p -e \$p /etc/release
Solaris Express Community Edition snv_122 SPARC
Assembled 24 August 2009
[root@nostromo ~]# /usr/bin/ksh93
root@nostromo:~# echo =`sleep 1`=
==
root@nostromo:~#
It looks like something goes wrong in other place.
