change in gawk from 3.1.5 to 3.1.6


Hello Corinna,

the change in gawk from 3.1.5 to 3.1.6 broke my script.

in 3.1.5 i received a correct value when fomatting hex strings

> awk '{printf ("%6d","0x22" ) }' test.txt
 34

in 3.1.6 i receiveonly 0 when fomatting hex strings

3.1.6
> awk '{printf ("%6d","0x22" ) }' test.txt
 0



it loks as if it didn't understand hex notation any longer. Or am I missing something ?



Greetings,


Helmut Kern
