The snapped program calls /usr/bin/awk at runtime, so I'd presumably need mawk to be installed in the host at runtime as well? (AIUI, /usr/bin/awk is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/awk which gets resolved against the host's /etc. The host's /etc/alternatives/awk points at /usr/bin/[gm]awk which is then resolved against the snap's view of the world.)
