Summary:                    awk does not call END if next is called on last last
line of input and input file has no newline.
Description: 
The END section of my awk script does not get called if i match the final
line of the input file, call next, and the input file does not end in a
new line. If I add new lines to the end of the input file, all is well. If
I do not call next after the match, all is well.

This is differnt to the result I get with the awk program shipped with
Fedora Core 4.
