Daniel Templeton commented on HADOOP-2689:
------------------------------------------
I've pulled together a short gawk script that handles the unrolling of
regex-esque syntax quite nicely. Since slaves.sh already depends on sed, I
don't see any issue swapping out that dependency for gawk. I just need to do a
little more clean-up, and then I'll post the patch.
