Good question, but I have to ask: Is LPI really in the business of testing a candidate's direct knowledge of awk, perl or <insert any tool here>?
I think not. I think LPI rather tests a bunch of tools and if the candidate scores above 50% percentile on that section, then it's a good bet they know other related tools well enough to make the grade. I'd vote to include awk, but not perl. For the simple reason that every question I can think of for perl tests perl's syntax; and this is a sysadmin rating exam, not a programmer exam.
