Dear Maintainer,
In the newest version of mawk, the following invocation returns invalid
result:
$ mawk 'BEGIN { x = "asd "; sub(/ .*$/, "", x); print("|"x"|"); }'
|asd |
Expected result:
|asd|
After downgrading to the previous version 1.3.4.20240622-2 it produces
the correct expected result.
Thank you,
Marek
