I don't believe so. I think they were the basis for z/OS, which is
a POSIX environment on top of IBM's MVS.

The MKS awk made its way out into the world via Solaris, which for some
reason chose that code base, instead of a more recent version of BWK's
awk, for their POSIX awk.  Quite some time ago I ported it to Linux; it
took an hour or so. It'd take more work to make it generally portable, which
I never bothered to do.
