I think another package could be added or a build option.
We already have:
bash (3)
bash2
static-bash2
ast-ksh
static-ast-ksh
tcsh
static-tcsh
standalone-tcsh
So why not another package to match some of these needs :)
(By the way, I want to have native NetBSD ksh support ! history -- I
have a habit of using !!, !number and !ls for example.)
