Update to 4.0. Provided by Sergey Litvinov <slitvinov@gmail.com>

Changes:

Changes from 3.1.8 to 4.0.0
---------------------------

1. The special files /dev/pid, /dev/ppid, /dev/pgrpid and /dev/user are
   now completely gone. Use PROCINFO instead.

2. The POSIX 2008 behavior for `sub' and `gsub' are now the default.
   THIS CHANGES BEHAVIOR!!!!

3. The \s and \S escape sequences are now recognized in regular expressions.

4. The split() function accepts an optional fourth argument which is an array
   to hold the values of the separators.

5. The new -b / --characters-as-bytes option means "hands off my \ 
data"; gawk
   won't try to treat input as a multibyte string.

6. There is a new --sandbox option; see the doc.

7. Indirect function calls are now available.

8. Interval expressions are now part of default regular expressions for
   GNU Awk syntax.

9. --gen-po is now correctly named --gen-pot.

10. switch / case is now enabled by default. There's no longer a need
    for a configure-time option.

11. Gawk now supports BEGINFILE and ENDFILE. See the doc for details.

12. Directories named on the command line now produce a warning, not
    a fatal error, unless --posix or --traditional.

13. The new FPAT variable allows you to specify a regexp that matches
    the fields, instead of matching the field separator. The new patsplit()
    function gives the same capability for splitting.

14. All long options now have short options, for use in `#!' scripts.

15. Support for IPv6 is added via the /inet6/... special file. /inet4/...
    forces IPv4 and /inet chooses the system default (probably IPv4).

16. Added a warning for /[:space:]/ that should be /[[:space:]]/.

17. Merged with John Haque's byte code internals. Adds dgawk debugger and
    possibly improved performance.

18. `break' and `continue' are no longer valid outside a loop, even with
    --traditional.

19. POSIX character classes work with --traditional (BWK awk supports them).

20. Nuked redundant --compat, --copyleft, and --usage long options.

21. Arrays of arrays added. See the doc.

22. Per the GNU Coding Standards, dynamic extensions must now define
    a global symbol indicating that they are GPL-compatible. See
    the documentation and example extensions.
    THIS CHANGES BEHAVIOR!!!!

23. In POSIX mode, string comparisons use strcoll/wcscoll.
    THIS CHANGES BEHAVIOR!!!!

24. The option for raw sockets was removed, since it was never implemented.

25. Gawk now treats ranges of the form [d-h] as if they were in the C
    locale, no matter what kind of regexp is being used, and even if
    --posix.  The latest POSIX standard allows this, and the documentation
    has been updated.  Maybe this will stop all the questions about
    [a-z] matching uppercase letters.
    THIS CHANGES BEHAVIOR!!!!

26. PROCINFO["strftime"] now holds the default format for strftime().

27. Updated to latest infrastructure: Autoconf 2.68, Automake 1.11.1,
    Gettext 0.18.1, Bison 2.5.

28. Many code cleanups. Removed code for many old, unsupported systems:
	- Atari
	- Amiga
	- BeOS
	- Cray
	- MIPS RiscOS
	- MS-DOS with Microsoft Compiler
	- MS-Windows with Microsoft Compiler
	- NeXT
	- SunOS 3.x, Sun 386 (Road Runner)
	- Tandem (non-POSIX)
	- Prestandard VAX C compiler for VAX/VMS
	- Probably others that I've forgotten

29. If PROCINFO["sorted_in"] exists, for(iggy in foo) loops sort the
    indices before looping over them.  The value of this element
    provides control over how the indices are sorted before the loop
    traversal starts. See the manual.

30. A new isarray() function exists to distinguish if an item is an array
    or not, to make it possible to traverse multidimensional arrays.

31. asort() and asorti() take a third argument specifying how to sort.
    See the doc.

Update to 3.1.8:

Changes from 3.1.7 to 3.1.8
---------------------------
1. The zero flag no longer applies to %c and %s; apparently the standards
   changed at some point.

2. Updated to latest infrastructure: Autoconf 2.65, Automake 1.11.1,
   libtool 2.2.6b, Bison 2.4.2.

3. Failure to open a socket is no longer a fatal error.

4. dfa.h and dfa.c are now more-or-less in sync with GNU grep, for the first
   time in many years.

5. Gawk no longer includes its own copy of libsigsegv but it will use it if
   installed on the build system. The --disable-libsigsegv configure option
   is now gone.

6. The ' flag (%'d) is now just ignored on systems that can't support it.

7. Lots of bug fixes, see the ChangeLog.

Update to 3.1.7:

Changes from 3.1.6 to 3.1.7
---------------------------
1. Gawk now has support for z/OS (IBM S/390 architecture).

2. Gawk now handles multibyte strings better in [s]printf with field
   widths and such.

3. Gawk now uses libsigsegv to print a message before core dumping. This
   handles infinite recursion of an awk function a little better.
   Use of the library can be disabled at configure time with the
   --disable-libsigsegv option for unusual systems.

4. The handling of BINMODE is now somewhat more sane.

5. A getline from a directory is no longer fatal; instead it returns -1.

6. Per POSIX, special variable names (like FS) cannot be used as function
   parameter names.

7. The new -O / --optimize option enables simple constant folding on
   the parse tree during parsing.  We hope that with time the number
   of optimizations will increase.

8. Updated to the latest autotools: Autoconf 2.63, Automake 1.11,
   Libtool 2.2.6a, and Gettext 0.17. Also latest Bison: 2.4.1.

9. Some improvement in testing for isinf / isnan in builtin.c.

10. Improved the handling of `a = a b c' to be more general.

11. Locale handling for %'d should now work on certain non-Unix /
    non-Linux systems.

12. Lots of bugs fixed, see the ChangeLog for the details.

Log message:
Remove @dirrm entries from PLISTs

Log message:
Changes 3.1.6:
1. `gawk 'program' /non/existant/file' no longer core dumps.
2. gawk now only uses the locale's decimal point
3. `gawk -v BINMODE=1 ...' works again.
4. Internal file names like `/dev/user' now work again. (Note that these
   file names are obsolete and will go away eventually.)
5. Problems with wide strings in non "C" locales have been straightened
   out everywhere.  (At least, we think so.)
6. Use of `ansi2knr' is no longer supported. Please use an ANSI C compiler.
7. Updated to Autoconf 2.61, Automake 1.10, and Gettext 0.16.1.
8. The getopt* and regex* files were synchronized with current GLIBC CVS.
   See the ChangeLog for the versions and minor edits made.
9. There are additional --lint-old warnings.
10. Gawk now uses getaddrinfo(3) to look up names and IP addresses. This
    allows the use of an IPv6 format address and paves the way for
    eventual addition of `/inet6/...' and `/inet4/...' hostnames.
11. We believe gawk to now be valgrind clean. At least when run against
    the test suite.
12. A number of issues dealing with the formatting and printing of very
    large numbers in integer formats have been dealt with and fixed.
13. Gawk now converts "+inf", "-inf", "+nan" and \ 
"-nan" into the corresponding
    magic IEEE floating point values. Only those strings (case independent)
    work.  With --posix, gawk calls the system strtod directly. You asked
    for it, you got it, you deal with it.
14. Defining YYDEBUG enables the -D command line option.
15. Gawk should now work out of the box on Tandem NSK/OSS systems.
16. Lint messages rationalized: many more of the messages are now printed
    only once, instead of every time they are encountered.
17. The strftime() function now accepts an optional third argument, which
    if non-zero or non-null, indicates that the time should be formatted
    as UTC instead of as local time.
18. The precedence of concatenation and `| getline' (in something like
    "echo " "date" | getline stuff) has been reverted to the \ 
earlier
    behavior and now once again matches Unix awk.
19. New configure time flag --disable-directories-fatal which causes
    gawk to silently skip directories on the command line.  This behavior
    is also enabled for --traditional, since it's what Unix awk does.
20. A new option, --use-lc-numeric, forces use of the locale's decimal
    point without the rest of the draconian restrictions imposed by
    --posix. This softens somewhat the stance taken in item 2.
21. Everything relevant has been updated to the GPL 3.
22. Array growth should be faster now, at no cost in space.
23. Lots more tests.
24. One new translation.
25. Various bugs fixed, see the ChangeLog for details.
