Note that this will not work on OpenBSD anyway; even mksh, which
does implement this bashism, will not parse this

I think that does synchronous writes, even if you mount

The MirPorts Framework already runs on OpenBSD and Mac OSX, in addition
to being the native package source for MirOS BSD. (It also works on In-

It will come when time permits, though.)
