Hi,
What mail address would I report bugs in gawk 2.13??

I am getting a link error:

 *
 * The order of preference in standard conformance is ANSI C, POSIX,
 * and the SVID.
 *
 * If you have no clue as to what's going on with your system, try
 * compiling gawk without editing this file and see what shows up
 * missing in the link stage.  From there, you can probably figure out
 * which defines to turn on.

 * CHAR_UNSIGNED
 *
 * If your machine uses unsigned characters (IBM RT and RS/6000 and others)
 * then define this for use in regex.c
 */
/* #define CHAR_UNSIGNED        1 */

/*
 * HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SETJMP

 * Check in your /usr/include/setjmp.h file.  If there are routines
 * there named _setjmp and _longjmp, then you should define this.
 * Typically only systems derived from Berkeley Unix have this.

 * If you have a 4.2 BSD vintage system, then the strftime() routine
