Can you please have a look if virtual/awk is sufficient or if gawk is needed.

What does that mean (apart from the obvious spelling error)?

awk is only used for the build. The only place outside the autotools files is src/get_ver.awk, which is posix-conform. (Also WIN32-BUILD-TIPS.txt states nawk as one of the awk version to possible.)

So all in all, virtual/awk should be fine.
