The "make clean" rule in util/ss/Makefile.in removes the source files
ct_c.awk and ct_c.sed.
Oops. I generally don't build in the source tree, so I forgot about
that potential problem.
It also incorrectly assumes that sed is in /bin/sed.
What system was sed not in /bin, and where was it? I was under the
impression that POSIX required sed to be in /bin, but I could be
mistaken.
I have no idea why you replaced perfectly good C programs with this
awk/sed mess. Makes things a real pain.
Because yacc/bison, lex/flex compatibility/portability issues are even
more of a mess, and even more of a pain....
