There was a recent discussion about that it would be nice to have gawk on
Plan9.

The latest upstream version of gawk can now be built via 9front-ports. I
think/hope I built/ported it correctly, but it would be nice with
critique/feedback/testing.

I noticed in the Arch linux package that gawk comes with a couple of
dynamic libraries and a header. Are those also interesting to include in
the Plan9 package (then as static libraries ofcourse)?
