What version of awk do you have and on what platform is this?

Thanks for the quick response ..

I have GNU Awk 3.1.5. I am running Pardus Linux 2007.1, and I was
planning on making a pisi package for VOS.

The VOSMake page mentions 3.1.1 ... is VOS build system picky about this ?

Interesting. One of my test boxes here uses 3.1.5 (on Gentoo) and the build is fine.

Idea. Some distributions do compile gawk with locale-sensitive configure options. So check your LANG and LOCALE settings - mine are:

zsh 2:59PM tim/ % locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=

zsh  2:59PM tim/ % awk --version
GNU Awk 3.1.5
