Log Message:
Update of nawk to 20040207. Changes since previous version from bwk:
Fixed a bug in regular expressions that dates (so help me) from 1977;
it's been there from the beginning. an anchored longest match that
was longer than the number of states triggered a failure to initialize
the machine properly. many thanks to moinak ghosh for not only finding
this one but for providing a fix, in some of the most mysterious
code known to man.
fixed a storage leak in call() that appears to have been there since
1983 or so -- a function without an explicit return that assigns a
string to a parameter leaked a Cell. thanks to moinak ghosh for
spotting this very subtle one.
