Hello, I tried mailing this to tools-portage@gentoo.org but I never got an answer, so I'll try here. After inspecting the source code (only revdep-rebuild.sh and euse call gawk), I didn't see any obvious GNU extension being used. Maybe it could depends on virtual/awk instead (especially since this is the only stuff that `equery d gawk` gives).
