As far as I know changing the OFS (Output Field Separator) to RS (Input Record Separator, a newline by default) and rebuilding will only alter the way awk print the records.

It will not make any difference in the original record which awk read and stored internally in its memory.

This is the reason why you get expected output while printing, but not while computing the sum.
