missing awk.exe and gawk.exe in Cygwin download


Cygwin users,

An older download for Windows included awk.exe and gawk.exe in the cygwin/bin directory. I downloaded a recent version (1.3.12-2) that apparently doesn't include these files, so running the cygwin utility doesn't seem to work.

Two questions:

1. Was this intentional or is it just a mistake on my behalf when downloading?

2. If it is intentional, where can I download awk.exe and gawk.exe (and other necessary files) to make cygwin functional?

We direct users to your site to download Cygwin, and the users will likely be confused if the installation is incomplete. Thanks for your time.
