Yes, all parentheses tests in pgindent are meant to test literals. The
'\(' is required so it doesn't think it is defining a regex group.

Here is the output from my tests:
        
        $ echo '('|awk '$0 ~ /(/ {print $0}'
        awk: cmd. line:1: fatal: Unmatched ( or \(: /(/
        $ echo '('|awk '$0 ~ /\(/ {print $0}'
        (
        $ echo ')'|awk '$0 ~ /)/ {print $0}'
        )
        $ echo ')'|awk '$0 ~ /\)/ {print $0}'
        )

I just tried a machine that has awk 3.1.3 (you have 3.1.4) and I see:

        $ echo '('|awk '$0 ~ /(/ {print $0}'
        awk: cmd. line:1: fatal: Invalid regular expression: /(/
        $ echo '('|awk '$0 ~ /\(/ {print $0}'
        (
        $ echo ')'|awk '$0 ~ /)/ {print $0}'
        )
        $ echo ')'|awk '$0 ~ /\)/ {print $0}'
        )

which exactly matches the 3.0.4 version I usually use.  What are your
outputs for these tests?  Have you tried the current CVS version of
pgindent?  I think it might now work for you.
