gensub is a GNU awk extension.  So either you are running a different
flavor of awk, or you are running it in compatibility mode (Option -c or
--traditional).  Given the version string, I guess it's another flavor.

 

The easiest way to get GNU awk on mac is probably to install homebrew (or macports) first. In case of homebrew you can run:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"

brew update

brew install gawk
