Gawk's build system stopped installing igawk over five years ago:

Clearly, the script is not exactly obsolete, since the @include facility 
in
Gawk seems only to work with syntactically complete units, whereas
igawk performs blind textual inclusion.

If I were you, I'd just bring the igawk script into my code base and
continue that way. It's a tiny script that is licensed as
public domain; it doesn't carry much "technical debt" or licensing
debt.
