+<PRE>This contains some needed compile fixes. It also has this:
+* builtin.c (do_sub): Revert to gawk 3.1 behavior for backslash
+ handling. It was stupid to think I could break compatibility.
+ Thanks to John Ellson &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">ellson at research.att.com</A>&gt; for raising
+ the issue.
+
+Basically what that means is the gawk 4.0.0 we currently have is incompatible with every other version of gawk, past and future. So we really need this update.
+
+Confirmed it builds, installs, and works locally.

orum for
+</I>&gt;<i> submitting bugs, we need the same login so that Bugzilla has a contact email
+</I>&gt;<i> available. &#160;This is doable, and would also be more convenient for all
+</I>&gt;<i> contributors.
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, there is still the barrier of getting the user to sign up for an
+</I>&gt;<i> account ... :)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Another possibility is to have a Bugzilla assistant on the desktop, where
+</I>&gt;<i> the user is asked to describe the problem, give an email adresse, which is
+</I>&gt;<i> sent to Bugzilla.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The approach of OpenOffice (official) could always be used for crashes.
+</I>&gt;<i> A bug report page opens as OpenOffice restarts automatically on a crash.
+</I>&gt;<i> Relevent info has already been gathered, viewable on a sub-page.
+</I>&gt;<i> The user is asked to optionally describe what he was doing, and is invited
+</I>&gt;<i> to optionally enter their email adresse if there are furthur questions (and
+</I>&gt;<i> informed that it will only be used for the purposes of the bug in question).
+</I>&gt;<i> And if the user provides an email adresse, they receive a thank you email
+</I>&gt;<i> with the bug tracking number.
+</I>&gt;<i> Very easy, and probably provides as much info as the average bugzilla
+</I>&gt;<i> report.
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, only useful when a program crashes, where it can be automatically
+</I>&gt;<i> sensed that there is a problem. &#160;And it will produce a lot of duplicate bug
+</I>&gt;<i> reports, evidently.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+You could use a tool like abrt, which can detect duplicate bug
+reports, if I am correct.
+It'll also make filing bug reports easier...
+Maybe you could modify it to give a personal UUID for each computer,
+so that the user
+is not forced to register?
