| |
Running 'test -r' on an awk variable name whose value is an empty string results in test being run with no arguments, and causes system() to return 0, which indicates success when used to test values returned by function calls. This results in code within the if blocks being run when it should not be. Instead of testing if a file is accessible and readable via calls to system("test -r " file), rely on the value returned by getline to perform this kind of testing. Getline returns -1 on error, with the code within the while loops not being run.
