In PCB's build, we call "some variant of awk" to build the library.
However, we use a GNU extension (note the third argument):

        match (comment, /(.*)\[(.*)\]/, fp);

Is it intentional that we require GNU awk (in which case
configure/docs need to be changed) or not (in which case, the awk
script needs to be changed) ?
