I'm not sure which OS and awk you are running! Here is the o/p from 3 different plaforms:-

HP-UX
Code:
awk '$4!="A"{$4=$2$3;}$4=="A"{$4=$3$3;}1' OFS="\t" infile
1       X       Y       YY
3       Y       Z       YZ
4       A       W       AW
5       T       W       WW

GNU/Linux
Code:
gawk '$4!="A"{$4=$2$3;}$4=="A"{$4=$3$3;}1' OFS="\t" infile
1       X       Y       YY
3       Y       Z       YZ
4       A       W       AW
5       T       W       WW

SunOS
Code:
nawk '$4!="A"{$4=$2$3;}$4=="A"{$4=$3$3;}1' OFS="\t" infile
1       X       Y       YY
3       Y       Z       YZ
4       A       W       AW
5       T       W       WW
