GNU Awk 3.1.3 on WinXP

Was there a windows XP patch that came out around Sep that caused Gawk to not
work completely?

I have awk scripts that used to work fine on my XP and Win2kPro machines; but
as of Sep 2007, they only partially work on XP now.  The code still works fine
on Win2kPro.  Below is the error message:

  gawk: a.awk:59: (FILENAME=d.txt FNR=15) fatal error: internal error

  This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
  Please contact the application's support team for more information.

The odd thing is that, now, the awk code does process several lines of text;
but stops when it does a more complicated match on XP.  This code still runs
fine on Win2kPro.  My guess at this point, is that my Win2Kpro machine no longer
gets patches pushed out by my company, whereas my XP machine does.

It seems to be bombing when it reaches this line of text:
PWA     A12345-001-B-UNC        B       UNC     2       E

on this line of code:
if ( $2 ~ /^[A-Z][0-9]+\-[0-9][0-9][0-9]?\-[A-Z]+\-[A-Z]+/ ) {

Thanks, in advance, for any suggestions!
