Release 1.0.7

Here is the seventh ksh 93u+m/1.0 bugfix release. It fixes a hang
in command substitutions when combined with 'exec' and certain
redirections.

Main changes between ksh 93u+m/1.0.6 and 93u+m/1.0.7:

- Fixed a hang in command substitutions (introduced in 93u+m/1.0.0)
  that was triggered when redirecting standard output within a
  command substitution, in combination with other factors. E.g.,
  the following no longer hangs:
	{ v=$(redirect 2>&1 1>&9); } 9>&1
- Fixed a crash on trying to append an indexed array value to an
  unset name reference, e.g.: nameref unsetref; unsetref+=(foo
  bar). This now produces a "removing nameref attribute" warning
  before performing the assignment.
- Fixed: assignments like name=(...) to arrays did not preserve the
  array and variable types; similarly, assigning an empty set () to
  a compound indexed array caused the -C attribute to be lost.
- Fixed incorrect rejection of the tab key while reading input
  using the 'read' built-in command.
- Fixed a bug in printf %T: when using dates and times in the past,
  time zones for the present were incorrectly used, ignoring
  historical changes.
