Are you using pdksh from the ports collection, or some other version?

You can actually use file completion with ksh.  In vi mode (set -o vi),
type <esc> to go into command mode and then = and \ to list and complete,
respectively.  In emacs mode (set -o emacs) type <esc>= to list (the
same as vi mode) and <esc><esc> to complete.

It's possible to change the keybindings if you want to use a different
sequence (such as <tab>) for completion, but there are differences
between ksh93, pdksh, etc.
