Yep, I was originally going with exactly that (even had the code locally) but 
then I realized there was no point in not just using `find_program()` :smile: 
The reason we have `findutil()` is so that we have a sanitized path selection 
(i.e. not `$PATH`) for these utilities that go into `macros.in`. But Awk we 
need on the build system for real.

That being said, I now realize that one could have a custom Awk in their 
`$PATH` and therefore defeat the purpose of `findutil()` in the first place... 
Argh... Maybe the "now redundant" `findutil(__AWK awk)` should've stayed...
