Then something is broken for you, because I use _exactly_ the same Awk and it
works fine. I've even tried it with both /usr/bin/awk under FreeBSD (which is
also this awk version) and an own installed gawk 3.0.3. Both work fine. Look:
| :> gawk 'BEGIN { printf("%c%c%c%c", 27, 91, 49, 109); }' </dev/null
| rse@en1:/sw/pkg/shtool/src
| :> gawk --version
| GNU Awk 3.0.3

Can you try the above command on your platform, too? As you can see, I've
here even directly called it and it worked fine.
