Hello,
  I've noticed an "internal error" of gawk 3.1.3.

        gawk 'BEGIN{print "date" |& getline}'

Patch below.  (Both bug and patch should apply to current code too.)

Enjoy,

        Fixed a segfault triggered by the following:

                gawk 'BEGIN{print "date" |& getline}'

        No test case created, beacuse of teh following:
        Correct interpretation involves executing "1" or "0" -- as the user
        may have defined this, we would have to override this in the test
        script.  It's not worth the hassle.

        * awkgram.y (output_redir): Make sure not to dereference NULL
          pointer.  The bug was triggered by the following code:
