   ksh doesn't claim to be POSIX compliant?

    "ksh is intended to conform to the Shell Language Standard
     developed by the IEEE POSIX 1003.2 Shell and Utilities Language
     Committee."
                                   -- http://www.kornshell.com/info/

   And on a FreeBSD-compiled binary of the real AT&T ksh code:

     $ echo ${.sh.version}
     Version M 1993-12-28 i
     $ for i in ; do echo $i; done
     $
