Hmm. If the project refers to itself as 93u+m does it make sense to 
package it as ksh instead of something like ksh93u+m? This reminds me 
of when debian first packaged openssh as "ssh" because that's what the 
predecessor package and the binary were called but in the long run 
renamed it to "openssh". (And with a new name the version/epoch question 
is moot.)
