            Bug ID: 60277
           Summary: Gawk 5.4 breaks gitapply.sh
           Product: Wine-staging
           Version: 11.16
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
                CC: [e-mail], [e-mail]
  Target Milestone: ---
      Distribution: ---

Starting with gawk 5.4.x the "Find end of textual patch" gawk fails.

message:
"gawk: cmd. line:5: error: ? * + or {interval} not preceded by valid
subpattern: /^(@| |+|-|\\)/"

The new version of gawk expects the + sign to be escaped. Escaping does not
break older versions of gawk. I would push a PR but it's a one-liner.
