perhaps... note the 4th extension...

https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/gawkextlib.html
As of this writing, there are seven extensions:

    errno extension
    GD graphics library extension
    PDF extension
    PostgreSQL extension

​Thanks. I missed that. The GAWK documentation is a bit difficult to get through. I depended way too much on a Google search.​

 
    MPFR library extension (this provides access to a number of MPFR functions that gawk’s native MPFR support does not)
    Redis extension
    XML parser extension, using the Expat XML parsing librar
