Argh - now I remember why we tried to avoid awk as much as
possible. Why do the sun guy's ship such a crippled version
for a good old UNIX V7 tool? I rememver that MINIX already
had a better one! DAMNED BLOODY MOTHERF...
And I discovered another problem with it too. The path
replacements in various scripts (especially those loading
shared objects at runtime) need to use the ones from the temp
installation. But that's surely hackable.
