#49775: texlive-bin: configure fails when nawk is installed

--------------------------+-------------------------
texlive-bin fails to configure when the nawk port is installed but the
gawk port is not:
{{{
config.status: creating c-auto.h
nawk: illegal statement
input record number 1, file c-auto.in
source line number 54
config.status: error: could not create c-auto.h
}}}
Similar errors are common in other ports. I guess many ports' build
systems use awk syntax that is not compatible with nawk.
We've been fixing this in other ports by patching the configure script so
that it does not consider nawk as an awk candidate. Alternately, a
configure argument can be added:
{{{
ac_cv_prog_AWK=/usr/bin/awk
}}}
