At least with the combination of find and awk implemented on my linux system, there's a full path listing avalable, including filenames containing spaces:
Hi Rudi,
Yes, but note that by skipping the -print (or -print0) and the invocation of xargs, awk is still given the full pathname as an operand (even if there are spaces, tabs, or newlines included in the pathname).

Yes. Still I thought the number of fields to be more relevant than the number of separators. Might have been premature.
Agreed. But it wasn't what Charlie6742 asked for.

Works, and satisfies the standards, but:
Not surprising since what you timed runs awk once for each input file.
But note that I specified:
not:
With the + instead of the \; find shouldn't execute awk any more times than xargs would and we avoid needing to start xargs at all.

IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
