You have a "stty" command in your .profile or whatever ksh does upon startup.
I had the same problem when I had an stty command in my .cshrc (I use csh --
old Berzerkley habits die hard). Since output is being sent to a pipe instead
of to a tty, stty complains because it can't find a tty structure.  I removed
the command, and all is well.
