I guess at this stage no gawk should be invoked (and the only awk binary in
my path is /usr/bin/awk which is not gawk). The other awk resonably
invoked is /usr/tools/bin/nbawk which also is not gawk.

 The configure script in /usr/src/tools/host-mkdep looks for mawk and if =
 it does not find it, it defaults to gawk. I think it is fine for the =
 host tool to use gawk, but the mkdep script should be fixed to not cause =
 warnings.

Joerg fixed this in tools/host-mkdep/host-mkdep.in rev 1.32 on 2019-10-30
With gawk installed on my system and used by host-mkdep, there are no
warnings any more
