I also get using the standard awk(1) on Tru64 5.0. It's due to the
change in patchlevel05 to extract.awk that accounts for extra
whitespace or something. I got around the problem by using gawk
instead, but I suppose this should be revisited for the sake of
portability. The rest of postfix build without errors on every OS
I've encountered.
