Hello there,
I've just found a rather weird problem on my opensuse10.1 box.
I've produced a simple awk script and a sample input file which makes gawk crash on my 10.1, while it works as expected on my gentoo. I got also what I would expect on non-gnu awk running under Mac OS X.
I would really appreciate if someone ran my script under 10.1 and tried to reproduce the error. It's a one minute task: I've arranged everything below so you can run it on your ~/tmp with a single copy/paste, if you feel like giving it a try.
Maybe I'm not seeing the obvious, I would expect a broken awk build to cause lots of trouble on my system, but this sample script is quite tricky. So I would appreciate if someone confirms the odd behaviour or has any clue before I go on with further testing.
Hello Pablo, I can confirm the problem, but have no clue what's wrong. This really seems to be a bug in gawk. Perhaps comparing the sources with a working version will help.
