Comment (by kencu):

 On my system, trying to upgrade gawk insisted to upgrade gdbm first, which
 also failed due to the broken installation of the not-yet-upgraded gawk.
 So I had to use Ryan's force uninstall of gawk method above to get around
 that, which then allowed gdbm to proceed, and then a new gawk to be built.

 Here's the tail of the gdbm failure.
