ITP: mksh-R39c-1


Hi All,

Given that pdksh has abandoned, I'm proposing to add mksh as a
replacement.  I realize that Jari Aalto has proposed mksh in the past
(http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2007-09/msg00021.html), and that
it was subsequently shot down in favour of pdksh.  But given that Igor
Peshansky has seemed to have moved on, and pdksh is now abandoned, I
would like to maintain mksh in it's place.

Since mksh is distributed as a .cpio.gz archive, and at this point
cygport does not handle cpio archives, I've had to create my own build
script, so I would appreciate it if someone could give it the once
over.
