Assuming you have a SPARC system the answer I got in the past was
basically "tough luck, get a different model of SPARC..." I suspect
it's a weird code generation issue on SPARCstation 2 CPU's since
that's where there is a known problem with awk.
I basically have to rip apart the scripts and generate the files
on my Solaris box to get it to work... B^(.
If you aren't on a SPARC then I have no idea although maybe it's
a related gcc code generation problem on multiple arch's.
