No changes in mksh R33c except for Ultrix support. None in R33d.
In mksh R33b, much more compilers are detected, even if not all of
them are supported. The OE (OS and CC/LD) versions are now dumped
too. Instead of #error, forced link failures are now used as the
mechanism to auto-detect some things in the target environment.
Features are now much better detected, and some annoying warnings
don't show up any longer due to this. Less tools are required to
build.
Please be reminded that you should run ./test.sh -v inside an
environment with /dev/tty available (as device node) and usable
(e.g. use script(1) or GNU screen if you're doing auto-builds
detached from controlling terminal). Use -v to see failures.
No surprises in mksh R33 either, but the build system now gives
more detailed output on the version actually built, to aid tracking
down FTBFSen (build errors) with access to only the build logs.
Regression tests now work with Intel's compiler on SLES too, which
requires a custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH formerly stripped by the script.

R32:
* Make checks for symbol declarations compile checks instead of link
checks, as the binding may not succeed due to different symbol types,
for instance on AIX, if the declaration does not match
* Widen the range of array indices to [0..2^3ý-1], with negative values
being mapped into the high-bit31 range for simplicity
* Fix the pipeline-as-coprocess internal error
* Do not require certain integer types to be defined any more
R31d:
* Support pcc (the ragge version of the Portable C Compiler)
* Add pushd/popd/dirs functions (csh) and precmd/chpwd hooks (zsh) to
dot.mkshrc which now requires readlink(1) with -f; requested by many
(e.g. some Gentoo users; XTaran of symlink.ch)
* Enable colour escapes in dot.mkshrc since almost nobody groks how to
do it right from the manual
* Remove -DMKSH_NEED_MKNOD checks from Build.sh, people should use the
HAVE_MKNOD environment variable
* Implement parallel make in Build.sh
* Fix another busy-loop spinning problem introduced by an icc warning,
thanks to spaetzle@freewrt.org for keeping to bug me to look for it,
as it affected GNU/Linux most, followed by Solaris, rarely BSD
* Improve standard integer type detection in Build.sh
* Cleanups in code, build script and manual page
R31b:
* Fix typo (blsk -> bksl) in check.t test naming
* Autoscan for uint32_t, u_int etc. presence
* Fix some memory leaks, mostly by NetBSD(R) via OpenBSD
* The "unset" builtin always returns zero, even if the variable was
already unset, as per SUSv3 (reported by Arkadiusz Miskiewicz via
pld-linux -> oksh)
* In tab-completion, escape the question mark, reminded by
cbiere@netbsd.org, via oksh
* Fix a busy-loop problem, Debian #296446 via oksh
* Fix a few display output problems in the build script
* Shut up some gcc warnings on Fedora; beautify some code
* Support OSF/1 with gcc2.8, thanks to Jupp Schugt
* Fix gcc4 detection of __attribute__() on non-SSP targets
R31:
* Support the TenDRA compiler (possibly also Ten15, not tried)
* Begin supporting Fabrice Bellard's Tiny C Compiler (tcc on Debian
cannot link due to duplicate symbols in GNU libc, thus unfinished)
* Improve some mirtoconf checks (most notably, mknod(2) and macros)
* Add new emacs editing command "clear-screen" (ESC ^L) as requested by
D. Adam Karim <archite@midnightbsd.org>
* Support building for MidnightBSD
* Add new shell alias "source", semantics like the GNU bash builtin
* Add new shell option "set ño arc4random", controlling whether rand(3)
or arc4random(3) is used for the $RANDOM value, use
arc4random_pushb(3)
* Add new builtin "rename" (just calls rename(2) on its arguments)
* Fix the inofficial OpenBSD port, from D. Adam "Archite" Karim, 10x
* Disable the less(1) history file by default (privacy issues) in the
sample dot.mkshrc file; mention other things in etc_profile
* Fix a syntax error in Build.sh checking for TenDRA

* If the basename of argv[0] starts with "sh", activate FPOSIX early,
preventing some typical ksh aliases from being defined.
* If FPOSIX, don't pre-define aliases (except integer and local) to
benefit operating environments that never heard of the great Korn Shell.
* Support x=(a b c) bash-like array initialisation
* Support ${foo:2:3} bash-like substring expansion
* Don't try to execute ELF, a.out, COFF, gzip or MZ binaries, e.g.
mksh /bin/sh.
* Prefer well-known signal names to alphabetically earlier ones
* Fix a bug delivering ERR and EXIT pseudo-signals to traps combined
with "set -e".
Update from mirabilos#pkgsrc with small fixups by me.

From DESCR:
mksh is the MirBSD enhanced version of the Public Domain Korn
shell (pdksh), a bourne-compatible shell which is largely si-
milar to the original AT&T Korn shell. It includes bug fixes
and feature improvements in order to produce a modern, robust
shell good for interactive and especially script use.
