- Update to gawk 5.2.0
* Numeric scalars now compare in the same way as C for the relational
operators. Comparison order for sorting has not changed
* If the AWK_HASH environment variable is set to "fnv1a" gawk will
use the FNV1-A hash function for associative arrays
* There is now a new function, mkbool(), that creates Boolean-typed
values
* As BWK awk has supported interval expressions since 2019, they are
now enabled even if --traditional is supplied
* The rwarray extension has two new functions, writeall() and readall()
* The new `gawkbug' script should be used for reporting bugs
* The manual page (doc/gawk.1) has been considerably reduced in size
* Gawk now supports Terence Kelly's "persistent malloc" (pma),
allowing gawk to preserve its variables, arrays and user-defined
functions between runs
* Some subtle issues with untyped array elements being passed to
functions have been fixed
* Syntax errors are now immediately fatal
- gawk-5.1.1-Disable-racy-test-in-test-iolint.awk.patch: removed
- pma.patch: Handle hole bigger than half the address space
- nan-tests.patch: fix non-portable NaN tests
