Subject: awk bug in cygwin 1.5.5 under windows xp

awk fails when called from the cmd or cmdproxy shell. The shell does not
interpret correctly the link to gawk. Apparently this observation was
reported several times in the internet.

Changing all "awk" to "gawk" in my scripts works fine, but a more
elegant solution would be desirable.
