As someone has already said it is available; the rpm is pdksh.

Beyond that, bash is mostly a superset of ksh functionality (with some
csh thrown in).  Probably your ksh scripts will for the most part
work fine running through bash.  There are a few places where 
syntax differs, but I suspect the effort to make them work will
be very small.  As a matter of fact, it has been my experience that many
scripts just work.
