 I'm concerned about the extent of the fix wherein the code is working on *both* 'for' and 'select'.
 
 Judging by http://linux.die.net/man/1/pdksh it appears that 'select' shouldn't necessarily
 support the 'in ;' sort of usage.
 
 Could I get any suggestions, confirmation (or infirmation) of this to determine if there needs to be a
 a bit of adapting for 'select' case.
 
 Other than this mention, outside of a bulk build (which I can't do since a while until
 I resync my tree's 'current' pbulk with 'joyent' bits) the patch seems be working well.
