The configure command needs:

Indeed you are right. Looking at the scripts that are installed, I don't know that we want them at all. They define six functions, but do not export them, so they are transient during the boot process. They do export AWKPATH and AWKLIBPATH if called. We do not call them.

It may not hurt to leave the scripts in /etc/profile.d, but their use seems pretty obscure to me.

We may want to use --sysconfdir=/dev/null, but that will throw an error when the Makefile tries to create a directory there.

A better option may be:

sed -i 's/extras//' Makefile.in
