I've got a guy asking for support where Ncurses 5.9 fail to build at
temporary chapter.
It seems that Ncurses there uses mawk by default even tough gawk is
installed (checked host requirements). Since mawk is used, headers
aren't generated correctly and make fails.
$ make
cd man && make DESTDIR="" all
make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/ncurses-5.9/man'
sh ./MKterminfo.sh ./terminfo.head ./../include/Caps ./terminfo.tail

make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/ncurses-5.9/man'
cd include && make DESTDIR="" all
make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/ncurses-5.9/include'
cat curses.head >curses.h
AWK=mawk sh ./MKkey_defs.sh ./Caps >>curses.h
sh -c 'if test "chtype" = "cchar_t" ; then cat ./curses.wide >>curses.h
; fi'
cat ./curses.tail >>curses.h
sh ./MKhashsize.sh ./Caps >hashsize.h

touch config.h
mawk -f MKterm.h.awk ./Caps > term.h

after running "AWK=gawk ./configure ...", build went fine. Has anyone
else experienced this? I did have mawk on Debian when I've built my LFS,
but ncurses built fine there. I've also asked him to post his "env"
output, and also there everything seemed fine. So, has anyone got any
idea why is mawk being detected instead of mawk? /usr/bin/awk is symlink
to gawk, not mawk. I think he uses Ubuntu, I remember seeing GCC 4.6.1
with Ubuntu stuff in hostreqs output.
