Agreed.  But do we really need egrep or is grep sufficient?

Your patch is not against latest CVS.  The first chunk of
po/Makefile.in.in has been rewritten already to only use sed (no awk or
grep).

The second one has also changed slightly.

I guess you have used 1.1.6fix? as your base?  My patches to
po/Makefile.in.in haven't been applied to that tree yet.  Since noone has
complained about them yet they should be safe to introduce, JMarc.

What doesn't awk handle that nawk does?
