ksh93 on Caldera

I need to run ksh93 on Caldera 3.1.1. The pdksh that comes with 3.1.1 lacks
features used in some test scripts that we want to run on Linux.

I downloaded the compiled ksh93 for Linux from AT&T, only to see that it
uses glibc 2.3, which I do not have installed.

My question is, would I be able to simply make the glibc 2.3 binary
available for the program and have it run? I do not want to do a real
install of a new glibc as I expect it to be a potential problem. I 
know I can try and see, but I was curious if anyone had any warnings of
bits of wisdom to impart for this.

(I am also looking for the source on the AT&T site. It is mentioned as being
available, but the link seems illusive.)
