+ * gawktexi.in (awk split records): Remove the bit about POSIX
+ mode not treating newline as a field separator; it's been not
+ true since 2015. Thanks to Arkadiusz Drabczyk <arkadiusz@drabczyk.org>
+ for the report.

@@ -4565,19 +4565,6 @@ value of 'RS' has no special effect: it is treated
literally. This is
required for backwards compatibility with both Unix 'awk' and with
POSIX.
- When using regular characters as the record separator, there is one
-unusual case that occurs when 'gawk' is being fully POSIX-compliant
-(*note Options::). Then, the following (extreme) pipeline prints a
-surprising '1':
-
- $ echo | gawk --posix 'BEGIN { RS = "a" } ; { print NF }'
- -| 1
-
- There is one field, consisting of a newline. The value of the
-built-in variable 'NF' is the number of fields in the current record.
-(In the normal case, 'gawk' treats the newline as whitespace, printing
-'0' as the result. Most other versions of 'awk' also act this way.)
-
Reaching the end of an input file terminates the current input
record, even if the last character in the file is not the character in
'RS'. (d.c.)
