Okay folks. I've figured it out. You want me to say it? I was wrong...
I've done some research and I have found out a few things that lead me
astray..
On the SVR4 box I referred to, sh was linked to ksh, therefore, ksh shells
would run.
On the SCO box, I talked to the administrator, and found out he had actually
hacked a version of ksh and changed it so that it performed as I had seen.
On SunOS, I was wrong...
Thank you for the enlightenment. Still sucks though, I think it would be
a good idea for me to be able to define the shell used via an ENV variable. :)
