DetailsDescription:
Arch's nawk package is using the latest git tag from onetrueawk, but upstream recommends not to use those: "A Note About Releases We don't usually do releases." So I'd like to propose doing what other systems do and periodically update the package to the latest git commit. The attached diff switches to the latest git commit and brings in fixes for various leaks and use-after-free issues. Additional info: https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk/blob/master/README.md

Updated diff with a little pkgver() trick to make future updates easier.
