This may run afoul of the GNU standards.texi. It says:
The `configure' script and the Makefile rules for building and
installation should not use any utilities directly except these:
cat cmp cp diff echo egrep expr false grep install-info
ln ls mkdir mv pwd rm rmdir sed sleep sort tar test touch true
Note the absence of 'awk' as an allowed utility.
