I have tried to build glibc without success on 2 separate machines. Both running ubuntu 8.04 desktop. The first instance is using shared space on a partition following the file next to hint. The second instance is installing on a separate disk with a 20 GB linux partition and a 1 GB swap partition. In each case I get the failure where awk is blowing up in a script as shown in the attached file. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong and/or what to do next?

LFS-BOOK-6.3
Section 5.6.1 Installation of Glibc make failure:
Host system is running ubuntu 8.04 desktop
