it depends on the version of your awk. GNU awk doesn't have such limitation.
Please get GNU awk (gawk) for your system. For example, precompiled version
for Sun is available from: www.sunfreeware.com .
BTW, if you really use Solaris, please _never_ try to use the default
awk or nawk. Use /usr/xpg4/bin/awk if you cannot get GNU awk.
