The bug here's not so much gawk as in the kernel itself, which is
currently missing some files while the merges from various people's
trees are getting synced. Granted, it's probably not the best behavior
for gawk just to seg-fault when files are missing, but if the kernel
tree's correct, which it will be eventually, gawk-2.0.2 won't be a
problem.
