If you want them reversed, then just replace "patsplit"
with "split". Why do you think patsplit is not working
properly? The regex arg to patsplit tells gawk how to
match field contents, not how to match separators.
It looks like it's working correctly to me, but maybe
it's late and my brain is fried.
