Shoudln't be problem, because all functions are exactly called once, besides 
print_head which is called 4 times, but it's only three line function so it's 
 no prob. Simply one could embed current funtions into the code, so no 
functions are needed.
Nick can you do it? I think otherwise I could do, but I dunno awk, so 
probably yours would be cleaner.

Nick, can you tell me what a function like:
function init_name_db()
{
  vendor_names[1]=""
}
is good for? ;)

yea, especially because system might miss a symlink from  *awk to awk and 
also it could choose best awk, mawk seems to be fastest. But IMHO it's ok to 
use it in path because it's global systemutil that should be in PATH anyway.
