This is not a bug, per se, but, really, Thurston...
The aesthetics are all wrong.

Line 77 of support/mkversion.sh is shown below:

           patch_level=`cat $patchlevel_h | grep '^#define[        
]*PATCHLEVEL' | awk '{print $NF}'`

This file (from the bash 5.3 source) is dated 12/28/22, so not *that* ancient.

Anyway, cat | grep | awk when just one single awk would do?

(Yes, I get that it is written in old-style sh to be as portable as possible - 
so using ``
instead of $(), but still...)
