- Actually, this version of gawk was a try to utilize a GNU regex dll
- made for other GNU programs. Unfortunately, the regex library coming
- with gawk and the other one from which the dll was made differ. This
- has caused other problems too.
-
- I have uploaded a new gnuawk.zip without that dll stuff to
- ftp-os2.nmsu.edu just a few days ago. It should fix your problem. See
- /pub/uploads/gnuawk.zip.
