Checking the keys in /proc/key-users is buggy, as there's an extra '\'
character: in '{print \$4}' the '$4' shouldn't be escaped otherwise the
'awk' command will fail. This has passed unnoticed because the output
is sent to '_user_do' function and the result assigned to a variable.
While there, replace 'awk' by $AWK_PROG.

Hi!
Please note that I'm not an 'awk' expert and I may be wrong! But if I do
see an error if I run something like:
$ awk '/^[[:space:]]*1000:/{print \$4}' /proc/key-users
awk: cmd. line:1: /^[[:space:]]*1000:/{print \$4}
awk: cmd. line:1: ^ backslash not last character on line
But maybe this depends on the awk implementation, although I've tried a few.
