   Hey Gerrit!   
      
    GK> Why would one have libc flagged executable?   
      
   Because it is executable as well as a shared object.  No real good reason to   
   have it this way other than it is extremely useful when running;   
      
     $ /lib/libc.so.6

    GK> zsh/2 1208 % ll /lib/libc.so.7

   What's your point?  I see no output that would lead me to believe that   
   /lib/libc.so.7 is worthy of running on any machine here whereas the output of   
   /lib/libc.so.6 tells much of what is under the hood ... and it is the good   
   stuff.  Definetly GNU.   
      
    GK> HISTORY   
    GK>    An awk utility appeared in Version�7 AT&T UNIX.   
      
   That was a long time ago.  I am betting it preceded both mawk and gawk.   
      
    GK> So why bother about GNU residues at all? ;-)   
      
   I favour them and they've been good to me over the years, including gawk.    
   I've never used, nor ever seen, AT&T UNIX's awk.  How about you?
