I'll look into this. It seems related to other bugs in awk we have already (In reply to Warner Losh from comment #1) still a bug after the last import Also, upstream has indicated that this may not be fixed. https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk/issues/122 is the issue I've filed upstream. I've reported this bug twice to upstream now https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk/issues/49 and https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk/issues/122. Both times they have rejected it. I'm closing this bug as it's not FreeBSD specific. If you are interested in pursing it, I can only recommend you find a fix for this and work with upstream to get it accepted. I'm sorry I don't have a better outcome here, though. |
