Gawk 3.0.x is known to be broken on 64-bit SGI machines running IRIX 6.2.
1) It needs to be compiled with the native cc, not gcc.
2) Even if compiled with the native cc, the -32 option must be used.
If not, the gensub and gnu regex tests fail.
I don't have access to an IRIX 6.x machine, so I am not able to track
down the problem. If any kind soul is able to run gawk from a debugger
and figure out what the problem(s) are, and would let me know (and supply
patches!), I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
