>Description:
The awk script seems to have issues when building on a Solaris 11.4 host.

T ere are several versions of awk on a Solaris 11.4 host, including gawk.

Apparently the awk version picked up does not accept the syntax in the gen script.  
>How-To-Repeat:
Run a buils.sh tools on a Solaris 11.4 host

>Fix:
The following patch has been applied on a Solaris 11.4 host and a NetBSD 9.1 host for verification.
