            Bug ID: 239701
           Summary: shells/ksh93: shell dumps core when using time or
                    times command (and more)
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: cy at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: deepbluemistake at gmail.com
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(cy at FreeBSD.org)

Starting out from the normal login shell, sh:

$ ksh93
$ time
../src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c:2171: failed assertion 'tb.tv_sec'
Abort trap (core dumped)
$ ksh93
$ times
../src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c:2171: failed assertion 'tb.tv_sec'
Abort trap (core dumped)

Also, what braindamaged person decided it was a good idea to make the ksh93
package be an ALPHA RELEASE rather than a stable release?

$ ksh93
$ echo $KSH_VERSION        
Version A 2020.0.0-alpha1

I didn't expect to be beta testing or alpha testing a shell when I installed
ksh93 some time ago.  I actually use this shell both interactively and in
scripts and I need it to work.
This isn't OK.
Please revert to Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01

Other info in case it's necessary:

$ freebsd-version -kru
12.0-RELEASE-p9
12.0-RELEASE-p9
12.0-RELEASE-p9
$ uname -a
FreeBSD nyann.tanasinn.mochi 12.0-RELEASE-p9 FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p9 GENERIC 
amd64

Let me know if you need the core file sent or something.
