>Description:
When trying to build libgpg-error without gawk installed, the build fails:

===>  Building for libgpg-error-1.4_1
make  all-recursive
Making all in intl
Making all in m4
Making all in src
nawk -f ./mkstrtable.awk -v textidx=3  ./err-sources.h.in >err-sources.h

nawk -f ./mkerrcodes1.awk ./errnos.in >_mkerrcodes.h
cc -E _mkerrcodes.h | grep GPG_ERR_ | nawk -f ./mkerrcodes.awk >mkerrcodes.h
nawk: field separator [         ]+GPG_E... is too long
 source line number 66
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error/work/libgpg-error-1.4/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error/work/libgpg-error-1.4.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error.

Setting AWK to /usr/bin/awk changes nawk to /usr/bin/awk in the error message above, but doesn't solve the problem.

After installing gawk, it works without setting AWK.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Install gawk
