- Update to version 4.1.0
  * The three executables gawk, pgawk, and dgawk, have been merged into
    one, named just gawk.
  * The new -i option (from xgawk) is used for loading awk library files.
  * The new -l option (from xgawk) is used for loading dynamic extensions.
  * The dynamic extension interface has been completely redone.  There is
    now a defined API for C extensions to use.  A C extension acts like
    a function written in awk, except that it cannot do everything that awk
    code can. However, this allows interfacing to any facility that is
    available from C.
  * The "inplace" extension, built using the new facility, can be used to
    simulate the GNU "sed -i" feature.
  * The and(), or() and xor() functions now take any number of arguments,
    with a minimum of two.
  * New arrays: SYMTAB, FUNCTAB, and PROCINFO["identifiers"]. SYMTAB allows
    indirect access to any defined variable or array; it is possible to
    "walk" the symbol table, if that should be necessary.
