It's not a binary decision.  What we should probably do is:

1) Disconnect bwk-awk from the build.

2) Connect gawk to the build.

3) Fix bwk-awk and / or in-tree scripts that rely on gawkisms.

4) Disconnect gawk from the build.

5) Connect bwk-awk to the build.

6) Issue a fat HEADS UP to -current (and probably -ports).

Ciao,
