>Environment:
System: Solaris 10_b54 (May 2004)
Architecture: sparc64
Machine: sparc64
>Description:
	When trying to generate init.c for the build of bin/sh,
ksh appears to parse this script differently.  Or, at least,
parses the '(' in the regexp differently.  Escaping this regexp
solves the problem for the sparc64 Solaris build, and also still
works on NetBSD native builds (at least on i386).
>How-To-Repeat:
	Build NetBSD HEAD on a Solaris machine using /usr/bin/ksh as
BSHELL, HOST_SH, and CONFIG_SHELL.
>Fix:
	The following patch corrects this problem, and still works
on NetBSD native builds (in my limited testing).  From knowing how
things are supposed to be parsed, this should be completely safe.
