B.3.2.5 The OpenVMS GNV Project
...............................

The OpenVMS GNV package provides a build environment similar to POSIX
with ports of a collection of open source tools.  The 'gawk' found in
the GNV base kit is an older port.  Currently, the GNV project is being
reorganized to supply individual PCSI packages for each component.  See
.

   The normal build procedure for 'gawk' produces a program that is
suitable for use with GNV.

   The file 'vms/gawk_build_steps.txt' in the distribution documents the
procedure for building an OpenVMS PCSI kit that is compatible with GNV.
