Maybe the author can help us? I don't have the nawk source code, but my guess is that it has something to do with a bug in nawk, a bug that is caught by some internal checking code. On Solaris 8, "strings /usr/bin/nawk" outputs: ... ## tfree %.8s %06o %s tempcell list is curdled no space for temporaries ## gtemp %.8s %06o ... which looks like storage allocation debugging code to me. Since this problem occurs only for maintainers, I wouldn't worry about it. You can tell maintainers to get a working awk. PS. I'm not sure why you cc'ed to mawk's author -- it's not his fault. :-)
