I'm not aware of any tool like that. You could simply print out the contents of the arrays in the END block like this:

Code:
awk '
BEGIN {lines=0; column_count=0}
$2 !~ /=/ || NF != 3 {next}
! column[$1]++ {columns[column_count++]=$1}
$1 ~ /^STAGE*$/ || $1 SUBSEP lines in column_data{lines++}
{column_data[$1, lines]=$3}
END {
   for (i in column) print "column[" i "]="column[i]
   for (i in columns) print "columns[" i "]="columns[i]
   for (i in column_data) {
     k=i
     gsub(SUBSEP,",",k)
     print "column_data[" k "]="column_data[i]
   }
}
' infile


result:
Code:
column[ADDR]=5
column[ISGALW]=5
column[RRUL]=5
column[TYPE]=4
...
columns[0]=STAGE
columns[1]=ID
columns[2]=NAME
columns[3]=TYPE
columns[4]=DFRUL
columns[5]=ADDR
...
column_data[NAME,6]=PPROOA
column_data[SPRR,1]=TRUE
column_data[ID,1]=0
column_data[SPRR,3]=FALSE
column_data[ID,2]=2
column_data[SPRR,4]=FALSE
...

You can see that:
column[] is index by the column name and contains a count of the number of rows the column appears in (less 1)
columns[] is indexed by the column order and contains the column name.
column_data[] is a 2D array with index of <column name>,<row> and contains value of the data for that cell.

column[] is only used to detect the first occurrence of a column and add it to columns[]

nsd-checkconf

nsd-checkconf(8)                                                    nsd 3.2.12                                                    nsd-checkconf(8)

NAME

       nsd-checkconf - NSD configuration file checker.

SYNOPSIS

       nsd-checkconf [-v] [-h] [-o option] [-z zonename] [-s keyname] configfile

DESCRIPTION

       nsd-checkconf  reads  a  configuration  file. It prints parse errors to standard error, and performs additional checks on the contents. The
       configfile format is described in nsd.conf(5).

       The utility of this program is to check a config file for errors before using it in nsd(8) or zonec(8). This program can also be  used  for
       shell scripts to access the nsd config file, using the -o and -z options.

OPTIONS

       -v     After  reading  print  the  options  to  standard output in configfile format. Without this option, only success or parse errors are
              reported.

       -h     Print usage help information and exit.

       -o option
              Return only this option from the config file. This option can to be used in conjunction with the -z option.  The special value zones
              prints out a list of configured zones.

              This  option  is primarily used by nsdc to parse the config file from the shell. If the -z option is given, but the -o option is not
              given, nothing is printed.

       -s keyname
              Prints the key secret (base64 blob) configured for this key in the config file. Used to help shell scripts parse the config file.

       -z zonename
              Return the option specified with -o for zone 'zonename'.

              If this option is not given, the server section of the config file is used.  This option is primarily used by nsdc to parse the con-
              fig file from the shell.

              The -o, -s and -z option print configfile options to standard output.

FILES

       /etc/nsd3/nsd.conf
              default NSD configuration file
