17.5 How gawk Finds Extensions
Compiled extensions have to be installed in a directory where
gawk can find them. If gawk is configured and
built in the default fashion, the directory in which to find
extensions is /usr/local/lib/gawk. You can also specify a search
path with a list of directories to search for compiled extensions.
See section The AWKLIBPATH Environment Variable for more information.
