Thanks for the report but I am unable to recreate this problem.  Could
you tell us how you are making this happen?  A small test case that
reproduces the problem would allow us to recreate and look into it.
Something like this:

  $ echo one two three | awk '{print$NF}' | od -tx1 -c
  0000000 74 68 72 65 65 0a
            t   h   r   e   e  \n
  0000006

Of course this shows it working okay.  If possible we would like to
see a small test case such as the above that shows it not working so
that we can recreate the problem.

Bob
