More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
This simple patch makes the 'command' builtin POSIX-compliant and consistent with other current shells. It fixes two things: a) 'command -v' does not find shell reserved words (a.k.a. keywords). For instance, 'command -v select' outputs nothing but should output 'select'. b) 'command -pv' always outputs the path of an external command, even if 'command -p' would execute a builtin. For instance, 'command -p kill' executes the 'kill' builtin, as expected, but 'command -pv kill' outputs '/bin/kill'. The '-v' option is supposed to reflect what would actually be executed, so 'command -pv kill' should output 'kill'. The -p option sets the PATH to a default system value before doing the search, but that has no bearing on the fact that builtins take precedence over external commands. The patch fixes both issues for 'command' without affecting the behaviour of the ksh-specific builtin 'whence', which is handled by the same C function. Regression test added to obsd-regress.t.
