This is an old bug introduced way back when we got native awk
thanks to spew. It got discussed on irc, raised some technical
difficulties, then fell off the radar... I kludged page just
as umbraticus has back then because I had to work on something
else, and completely forgot to ask about it. I can see one
discussion about it on irc from 2016-08-18, but not much to go
on. Sorry m(
