New description:

 --enable-switch is not enabled for gawks macport build. It is necessary to
 work with scripts that have a switch statement in them. Both Linux and
 Windows version I tested have this enabled by default, so people just
 assume it to be widely avaiable.

 Please enable it by default.

 Simple patch makes it work:

Comment:

 It would be more helpful to attach the patch to the ticket rather than
 pasting the text inline in the description.
