Daniel Golle cd87977984 gawk: update to version 5.3.2
Changes from 5.3.1 to 5.3.2
---------------------------

1. The pretty printer now produces fewer spurious newlines; at the
   outermost level it now adds newlines between block comments and
   the block or function that follows them. The extra final newline
   is no longer produced.

2. OpenVMS 9.2-2 x86_64 is now supported.

3. On Linux and macos systems, the -no-pie linker flag is no longer required.
   PMA now works on macos systems with Apple silicon, and not just
   Intel systems.

4. Still more subtle issues related to uninitialized array elements have
   been fixed.

5. Associative arrays should now not grow quite as fast as they used to.

6. The code and documentation are now consistent with each other with
   respect to path searching and adding .awk to the filename. Both
   are always done, even with --posix and --traditional.

7. As usual, there have been several minor code cleanups and bug fixes.
   See the ChangeLog for details.

Changes from 5.3.0 to 5.3.1
---------------------------

1. More subtle issues related to uninitialized array elements have
   been fixed.

2. A number of bugs in the debugger related to handling of arrays
   have been fixed.

3. Some subtle bugs in the API have been fixed.

4. Use of MPFR is now possible again on 32-bit Power PC Mac systems.

5. Race conditions around broken pipes for system() and read and write
   pipes should now be closed off.

6. Support for OSF/1 has been removed.

7. The never-documented --nostalgia option has been removed. It was
   causing bug reports.

8. The implementation of printf/sprintf has been thoroughly reworked
   in order to make the code more maintainable and to fix a goodly
   number of corner cases.

9. As usual, there have been several minor code cleanups and bug fixes.
   See the ChangeLog for details.
