mawk, nawk, gawk used to have slightly different syntaxes on certain problems.
For cross platform development of scripts sometimes one is available and not
the others so you end up with large exception lists (from memory on
Solaris/HP-UX use nawk, on Linux use gawk.. keep scripts separate). Having one
that is available means quicker porting/management for commercial software.
