Why not? You say that "the results vary", but you dont point out
*how* they vary! As far as I can see it, its the line endings...?
So why not try an older gawk as proposed in the other thread.
Its a fact that cygwins(?) gawk behaviour changed concerning CR/LF.

Actually I didnt even get your problem. Your first post is at
least confusing. What about a clear and simple test case?
Or even better, stick to a gawk list.
