Do you ship a patched version of awk? I generally run with LC_ALL=en_US,
and with that, or with LC_ALL=de_DE, things still work fine with awk-3.0.4
compiled directly from the source tarball.
We can certainly do the LC_COLLATE=C thing in the makefile if that helps,
but I'd like to know a bit better what is going on.

Hmmm .... [[::lower::] would not have the same meening in this script
since we don't want to allow � or whatever in our variables...
