Created attachment 139031 [details, diff] proposed patch bsd awk doesnt seem to like having to match the empty string. I haven't found any reliable documentation about this corner case, but changing the regexp like that fixes the problem here. Another solution would be to force it using gawk, but considering the size of the patch that seems silly to add such a requirement. Please let me know if you want me to send it upstream (and where to send it), but the patch is so trivial that I think it could be sent with other ones.
while i consider the syntax used here pretty useful, i think it's a violation of POSIX ... please refer to: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/xbd_chap09.html 9.4.3 ERE Special Characters The vertical-line is special except when used in a bracket expression (see RE Bracket Expression). A vertical-line appearing first or last in an ERE, or immediately following a vertical-line or a left-parenthesis, or immediately preceding a right-parenthesis, produces undefined results. my interpretation of this is that "(|DEF)" is invalid anyone else feel like reading that and confirming ?
thinking about it, these two should be completely interchangeable: moo(|cow) moo(cow)? so i'll patch it to do the latter
added to current glibc-2.7-r1 ebuild http://sources.gentoo.org/gentoo/src/patchsets/glibc/2.7/1050_all_glibc-posix-awk.patch?rev=1.1
