# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_TRY_AWK_ANYOUT(NAME,TEST-INPUT,TEST-BODY,[ACTION-IF-SUCCESS],[ACTION-IF-FAILURE])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Run a test using the awk program found on AWK variable. The test being
#   run has TEST-BODY as body and is feeded with TEST-INPUT. If successful
#   execute ACTION-IF-SUCCESS otherwise ACTION-IF-FAILURE
#
#   This work is heavily based upon testawk.sh script by Heiner Steven. You
#   should find his script (and related works) at
#   <http://www.shelldorado.com/articles/awkcompat.html>. Thanks to
#   Alessandro Massignan for his suggestions and extensive nawk tests on
#   FreeBSD.
