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

awk is used during build in db-Makefile, Makefile.in and src/Makefile.in, but in ways, which is compatible with the POSIX awk standard, so virtual/awk should be the right dependency.

Or follow vapier's suggestion and get rid of the awk dependency completely as it is in the system set.
