It depends.
I understand that you cannot modify PlatformShell.ksh, but if you post the code it would be easier.

I think you need something like this (from what you're saying, it seems that the script invokes a new shell):

Code:
. PlatformShell.ksh<<!
make
!

Consider that . script is different than script and ./script.
