Test relating to solaris hangs my system

Line 56 of the script contains an invocation of a command named "print". This appears to be related to Solaris, and wants to use a builtin if it's ksh.

The problem is that it's not a builtin on my system, and I have a Perl script installed in /usr/local/bin/print that gets invoked and it hangs forever with these arguments. I've fixed my script, but this seems quite clumsy on the part of autoconf. By chance it works without my script because it invokes something from package mime-support.

It seems to me that autoconf ought at least to know if it's running ksh, and that perhaps the test before it is failing to filter for that.
