problems in awk.1

[esr]

This is automatically generated email about problems in a man page for which
you appear to be responsible.  If you are not the right person or list, tell
me and I will attempt to correct my database.

See http://catb.org/~esr/doclifter/problems.html for details on how and
why these patches were generated.  Feel free to email me with any questions.
Note: These patches do not change the mod date of any manual page.  You
may wish to do that by hand.

Problems with awk.1:

1. Use local definitions of .EX/.EE or .DS/.DE to avoid low-level troff
requests in the page body.  There are plans to add these to groff man;
in the interim, this patch adds a compatible definition to your page.
