>Description:
The attached patch to src/etc/MAKEDEV.awk removes an issue with building 
NetBSD on a Solaris 10 / SPARC hosted system (with PATH as described in 
src/tools/compat/README)

Apparently Solaris awk in /usr/xpg4/bin (MKS awk with POSIX/XCU4 changes) 
has some problems with the original construction in MAKEDEV.awk (introduced in 
rev. 1.17 of 
MAKEDEV.awk).

Please consider committing this fix so NetBSD is build on Solaris 10 / 
SPARC hosted systems.
