FWIW, gawk 4.0 is incompatible with the virtuoso-server (thru 6.1.3 at least) build process, triggering bad C code as generated from SQL files using gawk.

Virtuoso-server is a backend required by soprano when it in turn is supporting nepomuk, a kde4 base "semantic desktop" technology.

As a result, I had to downgrade back to gawk 3.1.8, for the time being.
